[QUOTE="mrbrklyn, post: 26658423, member: 4381"]It is very sad to hear that after over a 100 years, that the ANS has decided to move to some obscure location outside of lower Manhattan. They have struggled, I think, with relevancy which is very sad in a city that prides itself on the arts and history. It is not good. The ANA local in Colorado Springs... I went to visit it. It was not only nearly empty, but the exhibit was, IMO, very much amateurish for such a historically important collection. I will actually probably be back there in February. to see the ANS also migrate out of this cultural capital to me, says that there is something wrong with the city and its relationship with its institutions, and it says something disturbing about the Numismatic community, which in NYC and many major cities, has been slowly dying.
