Emerging Professional ANA Summer Seminar Scholarship

Central States Numismatic Society is proud to announce the formation of a new scholarship for young numismatic professionals to attend the ANA’s Summer Seminar.
The Emerging Young Professional Scholarship is designed to help nurture and educate young dealers and help them build a professional network through attending Summer Seminar. CSNS President Mitch Ernst added, “We all have heard that YN’s are the future of the hobby. Yet, no one has thought about helping the future of the dealer side of the hobby. It is our hope that this scholarship will help fill that need.”
