<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 2752022, member: 19165&quot;]The ANA absolutely does not come off as elitist, as some others have mentioned in this thread. The ANA actually seems a lot more plebeian. The ANS is exponentially more scholarly, and could be perceived as elitist. </p><p><br /></p><p>I first joined the ANA for a year in college, to try it out (because that&#039;s what you were supposed to do as a collector!). I let my membership lapse, and actually just rejoined two months ago. (I staid away, as have so many others, because of the incessant politics.... boring!) </p><p><br /></p><p>After reading 2 or 3 recent issues of The Numismatist.... I haven&#039;t really missed much.... There are a few interesting articles about extremely esoteric issues that I&#039;ll never see (not to mention buy), and there are a few articles written at a very basic level. That&#039;s great for some people, but it hasn&#039;t really been very stimulating for me yet. Let&#039;s hope it gets better, or I may just let my membership lapse again....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
