Central Nova Coin Club monthly meeting
Description
The next regular monthly meeting of the Central Nova Coin Club is scheduled for February 5, 2024. Monthly meetings of the Central Nova Coin Club are scheduled for 7 PM on the first Monday of each month throughout the year unless the first Monday is a holiday.
Regular monthly meetings are held in the large meeting space at the Truro Recreation Department Building (former Douglas Street School), 40 Douglas Street in Truro. Visitors are welcome. The meetings begin with a mini auction of coins, tokens or paper currency brought in by members. Visitors are welcome to participate. Payment by cash only please. Then there will be a short business meeting to deal with club activities, followed by an informational program on some aspect of numismatics. Department of Health protocols will be in effect and those who wish to wear masks are encouraged to do so.
There will be club members present who are knowledgeable and happy to appraise old coins, tokens and paper currency, and provide a free estimate of their value. You should always know the value of your collectable items before you part with them. It is wise to obtain an appraisal from a numismatist or a local collector you know and trust.
ALWAYS BEWARE of the outfits with fancy advertising , coming from away, that flit into town for a day. They only pay a very small percentage of what your collectable item/coin is actually worth. We have heard so many horror stories of people who have been ripped off. DO NOT BECOME VICTIM OF THESE UNSCRUPULOUS OUTFITS BECAUSE YOU DO NOT KNOW THE TRUE VALUE OF YOUR COINS. There are a number of local collectors and businesses that buy and sell coins and paper currency - please support local in pursuit of your hobby.
CLUB TIP : -Never, NEVER clean or polish old coins; polishing will ruin the collectable value. Too many coins with potential value have been ruined by someone trying to make the coin shine.
Anyone with an interest in coin, token or paper currency collecting is welcome to attend one of our meetings. Perhaps you will be interested in joining this popular hobby group. Just show up, or if you wish more information, please use this contact message or check out our Central Nova Coin Club Facebook page.
