Yes I signed up for the ANA because I wanted to attend the ANA Summer Seminars. Then I came to the realization that I wouldn't be able to make it this year. Not even sure what my number is, but I have a membership.
I agree, the magazine is the main reason I will rejoin. I like it better than any other coin related magazine out there.
Yes, I am. Be employed part-time at a newly-established coin shop, the owner felt it was necessary to sign me up. My response - "Heck, yeaaaah!". -Brian
Not a member. One simple reason is that the first A is short for American, and I'm European. Maybe, if I focused on US coinage, it would make some sense. But here in Germany I am not a member of any numismatic association either. Christian
Ya know Christian? It took me a year to figure out you were from Germany. I figured NW meant North West (US), DE (Delaware) EU (European Union)......I just thought you did a whole bunch of traveling around........
I was a member more than 20 years ago and had to let my membership lapse at the time. I do plan on rejoining in the future.
A little off-topic: NW is the state where I live (North Rhine Westphalia), DE is the Federal Republic of Germany, and EU is indeed the European Union. But in a way you're right - I was in (hm, drove through) Delaware in 2010, and next month I'll be in Oregon and Idaho. Pretty "NW" too, hehe. Christian
I'd like to but not yet. With a new girl on the way, moving into a new home, and paying taxes this year, it's on the backburner until after this summer.
Nope, I wouldnt mind since I like their magazine alot but I doubt I would use the other benefits at all.
