Working with a Rare Coin Dealer that Holds Membership in The American Numismatic Association

The Importance of Being Associated with the Leading Hobby Organization in U.S. Numismatics

Chartered by Congress in 1891, the American Numismatic Association--ANA--is the leading hobby organization in U.S. numismatics. Membership in this not-for-profit organization is open to all collectors, investors and dealers with an interest in the acquisition, study or general pursuit of coins. Membership in the ANA offers many benefits including access to the association's sizeable library, the opportunity to network with others who share your passion for coins and the ability to find ANA member-dealers located throughout the United States and abroad.

As a potential buyer of collectible United States coins, the opportunity to work with a long-standing ANA member should be of paramount concern in your search for a reputable dealer. The ANA offers arbitration services to help settle disputes between buyers and sellers of numismatic properties, providing both with the peace of mind they need to enter into transactions and otherwise conduct business. As President of Morgan Gold, Steve Deeds has held Life Membership #985 in the ANA since 1972. A professional rare coin dealer and expert for more than 40 years, Steve conducts himself with the utmost integrity and professionalism through all of his dealings in the rare coin market. Steve is also a long-time supporter of the ANA and its programs and, among other achievements throughout his diverse career, has conducted several highly successful official auctions of ANA Conventions.
