PNG Announces 2nd Annual Young Numismatists Scholarship
Back to the Coin News Index
(Fallbrook, CA) – The Professional Numismatists Guild (PNG) again
will send a talented young numismatist (YN) to the annual American
Numismatic Association (ANA) Summer Seminar in the second annual PNG YN
Scholarship Program.
“Nominations for potential scholarship recipients now are being
accepted, but only until June 15, 2006,” said PNG President Jeff
Garrett. Nominations should include the nominee’s name, contact
information and an explanation of why he or she should be awarded the
scholarship.
The nominations can be sent by e-mail to info@pngdealers.com, or by
mail to PNG Executive Director Robert Brueggeman, 3950 Concordia Lane,
Fallbrook, CA 92028.
The money to pay for the annual YN Scholarship is administered from
the PNG’s Gerald Bauman Memorial Fund. Bauman, who died in 2001, served
for many years as a prominent coin dealer with Manfra, Tordella &
Brookes.
“The week-long ANA Summer Seminar in Colorado Springs, Colorado can
be an invaluable experience for any numismatist, and especially exciting
for a young collector who is just starting to enjoy the hobby.
The PNG is pleased to help nurture a deserving young numismatist,”
said Brueggeman. Founded in 1955, PNG is a nonprofit organization
composed of many of the top rare coin and paper money dealers in the
United States and seven other countries.
