American Numismatic Association

The American Numismatic Association (ANA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the study and collection of coins, paper money, and related items. Founded in 1891, it serves as a resource for numismatists—enthusiasts and professionals alike—by providing educational programs, resources, and publications. The ANA also organizes events, including annual conventions, where collectors can buy, sell, and trade items. Its mission is to foster an appreciation for numismatics, helping members deepen their knowledge and passion for currency history and its cultural significance.
