VIRGINIA NUMISMATIC ASSOCIATION
ABOUT US:
The VNA is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit club. Our mission is to encourage and promote numismatic interest in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
Robbery! – Be on the lookout for coins stolen from the Annandale Coin Show in December 2023. A list of these stolen coins is available here.
Many were PCGS or NGC slabbed, high grade, Imperial Russian coins from 5 Kopeks to 5 Rubles and fully identifiable by looking at their images at PCGS and NGC.
Many US and foreign gold coins were also taken.
Talk with Parry Bragg by phone at 804 652-9183 if you see any of these stolen coins.SCAM! – Beware, several VNA Officers' emails have been hijacked and spoofing scammers are sending out requests for gifts cards and Zelle payments.
No VNA officer will ever email you asking for money. Please be careful and check, not just the name, but the return email, to verify that the sender’s email matches with those listed for VNA officers in this newsletter.
A Letter From Our President
President’s Message I hope all had a safe and enjoyable holiday. I attended a few large and small shows so far this year, and attendance has been pretty good. The FUN show in Florida was very well attended with large crowds and much activity. Small shows were active. I’m just back from the first Grapevine show in Dallas, Texas with a good crowd, yet most attendees were walking and talking, not buying. I hope this does not become a trend.
Volunteers, VNA officers and board members are working on the next VNA Convention/Show scheduled for late September 2024, at a new location at the Richmond Raceway in Henrico County, Virginia, a suburb of Richmond. This change in the venue is needed due to availability issues with the Fredericksburg venue. Days of the week and times are different from last year, to make the show more amenable to dealers and the public. Host clubs are the Richmond Coin Club, Monticello Coin Club, and the Virginia Peninsula Coin Club in the hope of having plenty of volunteers to handle the Convention.
The VNA seeks volunteers to take over as Convention Volunteer Director and to prepare the Memorial Table, recently relinquished by Moore Gouldman. Anyone interested can get in touch with me. I hope we will have more than enough volunteers to step up and help with the show.
We all need to be cognizant of our surroundings when doing shows, as just one moment of inattention and items or collections can disappear. We need to keep a look out for ourselves and others. Security at most shows is good but not all encompassing, so we need to stay observant, and call security, if necessary.
The next VNA Board meeting will be at the Richmond Coin Club Show at the ACCA Temple on Bellevue Avenue in Richmond on May11, 2024 at 0730. All VNA members are welcome.
I was saddened to learn of the passing of Malcolm Gutterman, a longtime member of the Tidewater Coin Club and longtime Bourse chairman of the twice annual show of that club. I met him at my first Tidewater show about 20 years ago and he always had a great smile when he saw me. I will sorely miss his smile and greetings. Parry Bragg - VNA President
