Available online at http://britnumsoc.org/publications/Digital%20BNJ/2010.shtml The British Association of Numismatic Societies www.coinclubs.freeserve.co.uk Who are we? We are the national organisation which represents numismatic societies throughout the United Kingdom and we were founded in 1953. What do we do? We promote the study of numismatics by bringing these societies and their members together to share and increase their interest and expertise in coins, tokens, medals of all types and paper currency. Whodowerepresent? Currently we have 39 affiliated societies: Banbury & District, Bath & Bristol, Bexley, Birmingham, British (London), Cambridgeshire, Cleveland (Middlesbrough), Crewe & District, Derbyshire, Devon & Exeter, Essex (Chelmsford), Havering, Huddersfield, Ipswich, Ireland (Belfast and Dublin), Kent (Maidstone), Kingston-on-Thames, Lancashire & Cheshire (Manchester), London, Mid-Lanark, Norwich, Northampton, Nottinghamshire (Nottingham), Ormskirk & West Lancashire, Oxford, Oxford Phoenix (University), Plymouth, Reading, Romsey, Royal (London), St Albans & Hertfordshire, Southampton & District, South-East Hampshire (Havant), South Manchester (Heaton Norris), South Wales & Monmouthshire (Newport), Tyneside, Wessex (Bournemouth), Worthing & District and Yorkshire (Leeds). What do we organise? The annual BANS Congress, held in April, moves around the UK and Ireland and recent venues have included Dublin, Cwmbran, Worthing, Scarborough and Cambridge. The Congress will be staged in Southport in 2011 and Bournemouth in 2012. Our Autumn Weekend, normally held in September at a college of further education, is a more informal gathering with a specifically educational programme. How can I find out more? Simply log onto our website and we will put you in touch with your nearest numismatic society. If you are the Secretary or team leader of a BANS-affiliated society, send details of your programme to the BANS secretary, Phyllis Stoddart, for inclusion on our website. We will even provide a link to your own Society website. Why not make a note of our Secretary’s contact details now?
