The PNG scholarship will cover airfare, tuition for one of the two 2024 Summer Seminar sessions, meals and dormitory accommodations on the campus of Colorado College, adjacent to the ANA headquarters,” said PNG Executive Director John Feigenbaum.

“All young numismatists between the ages of 13 and 22 are eligible to enter and are cordially invited to apply for the scholarship, but time is short.  Entrants must submit a short essay outlining why they should be chosen as this year’s scholarship recipient.  The deadline for receipt of the entries is Friday, March 29, 2024,” explained Feigenbaum.

Entries must include the applicant’s name and contact information. The essays can be sent by email to info@PNGdealers.org or by mail to the PNG Executive Director, 27890 Clinton Keith Rd, Suite D141, Murrieta CA 92562.

The Professional Numismatists Guild was founded in 1955, due in no small measure to the vision of well-known coin dealer Abe Kosoff. Kosoff and several other coin dealers believed that the hobby of coin collecting would be better served if a professional group was organized. After much effort, the Professional Numismatists Guild was established. Its motto, “Knowledge, Integrity, Responsibility” continues to reflect the aims of our not-for-profit organization.
