Founded in 1858 for the appreciation of numismatics
The American Numismatic Society is an organization dedicated to the study of coins, currency, medals, tokens, and related objects from all cultures, past and present. The Society's headquarters in New York City has the foremost research collection and library specialized in numismatics in the United States. These resources are used to support research and education in numismatics, for the benefit of academic specialists, serious collectors, professional numismatists, and the interested public.
The ANS offers numerous educational and outreach programs, events, and lectures for all ages both in the New York metropolitan area and abroad.
The American Numismatic Society continues to develop free digital resources for public use, including various searchable online collections and collaborations with institutions worldwide.
The curatorial department is responsible for the care, organization, and study of one of the largest and most important numismatic collection in the world.
