Calling all Coin Collectors!
The objects of our club are to: encourage good fellowship among
numismatists and to propagate knowledge of numismatics by arranging a
common meeting place, lectures, visits of interest, and displays.
We meet every month of the year except January and August in the Lecture Room of the
Warburg Institute,
Woburn Square, London WC1 0AB. (The British Numismatic Society also holds
its meetings in the same room.) Our meetings start at 6:30 pm and last for
up to 2 hours.
We have a very varied programme, with a meeting on the first (occasionally
the second) Tuesday. We hear informal lectures or talks, generally with slides,
from our own members or visiting experts. All coinage series, including Greek,
Roman, Oriental, English hammered and milled, Foreign, tokens, and paper money
are covered. Once a year, we have Members' Own Evening, at which
we hear a number of talks from members who, while having something interesting
to say, may not feel it warrants a full evenings talk.
Every year (May) there is a Club Auction. Although only members may
bid at auctions, any visitor present may of course ask a member to make bids on
their behalf.
The Annual General Meeting is held in March but in the the basement Common Room
at the Warburg, not the Lecture Room, at 6.00 pm. Officers for the coming year are elected, and the President gives his address.
This is followed by a Cheese and Wine party, to which we cordially invite
distinguished numismatists.
Every year members also receive the free Newsletter, with reports of
talks given to the Club, contributions by members, &c.
New Members and Visitors are always welcome, particularly those under 18
who enjoy cheaper (junior) membership rates.
