Hi everyone,
The next North Shore Numismatic Society’s meeting is on Tuesday, June 13th, 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 you recently acquired at our show to share and discuss at the meeting.
Announcements – Thank you to the following volunteers that helped at the recent Coins, Stamps & Collectibles Show:
Gene Simms, Art Davies, and Owen Wright.
This meeting is our last one before we take a break for July and August. We are therefore, having pizzas and Stan Chin has volunteered to pick them up for the meeting. Thank you Stan.
Regular meetings will resume on September 12th.
Program: I will present Part 2 of the PowerPoint “It’s Only Money”. It covers the sale of rare and expensive numismatic items that the average collector cannot afford to acquire.
Please bring your floor submissions for the auction and bring SMALL bills and change to facilitate your purchases. We will also have our 50/50 draw. Due to time constraints, please limit your submissions to five items.
