Hi everyone,
The next North Shore Numismatic Society’s meeting is on Tuesday, May 9th, 2023. It will be held at the Bonsor 55+ Senior Centre, 6533 Nelson Avenue in Burnaby and we will be meeting in the Multipurpose Room upstairs. Doors open at 6:30 pm and the meeting starts at 7:00 pm. It is open to both members and non-members, so everyone is welcome.
Show and Tell – Please bring items to share and discuss at the meeting.
Announcements – Please share any hobby-related announcements, e.g. future shows, club meetings, etc.
Program: Gene Simms will be presenting a PowerPoint program on “Canadian Numismatic Park Medallions” located in a unique coin park in Sudbury, Ontario. The program was created by the Timmins Coin Club in 2013 and shared through the Ontario Numismatic Association. We thank them for making this available.
Please bring your floor submissions for the auction and bring SMALL bills and change to facilitate your purchases. Due to time constraints, please limit your submissions to five items.
We will also have our 50/50 draw.
