The Club's purposes are to provide a forum for numismatic fellowship, offer service to the community, and host an annual springtime coin show. In cooperation with other organizations, such as the Cape Fear Museum and the local schools, we offer our expertise in identifying numismatic items and educating the public on aspects of coin collecting. We do not engage in activities that would detract from the business of legitimate dealers, such as appraisals or brokering. We encourage our members to support their choice of the hobby's organizations. The Club meets the third Wednesday evening of each month on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Wilmington, drawing attendees from Jacksonville to Southport, and even beyond.
Visitors are always welcome.
The opportunity to buy and trade, both privately and at auction, attends each meeting, as does a prepared program on such numismatic topics as collecting, dealing, travel, literature and history. In addition to a recharging of their numismatic batteries, meeting attendees might also leave with a raffle prize or attendance drawing award. The current paid-up membership is 45. Since the Club's 25th anniversary in 1988, about 32 tables have been available. Newsletter The Club's monthly newsletter, Coinfusion, provides members with notice of recent news, upcoming activities, and interesting numismatic insights.
