- I had such a blast at my first ever Whitman Expo out here in Baltimore, Maryland where I got to catch up with and meet many other YN’s including James Westin, attend a momentous dinner hosted by both NexGen and Heritage Auctions, work alongside Heritage President Greg Rohan and the heritage team, and buy incredible coins for myself including one of the brand new 2024 Flowing Hair Liberty Gold Coins made by the U.S. Mint and two marvelous toned Morgan dollars both graded MS65 by PCGS and NGC.

- This past weekend, I thankfully had the opportunity and had a blast working at Heritage Auctions’ Appraisal Event out in Beverly Hills, California where I got to work alongside fellow Heritage numismatist Kyle Kavanaugh, our Beverly Hills Team and many of our experts from all over. I also got to meet and help out so many people with evaluating and learning more about their collectible coins and check out the classic city of Beverly Hills itself. If you’re ever curious about a rare coin or collectible in your possession, feel free to reach out to us at Heritage Auctions or visit one of our many appraisal events throughout the country.

Bressett YN Literary Award for the 2nd time in a row by the American Numismatic Association while attending the 2024 Summer Seminar, for my article “Inspiration In Your Pockets: The History Of Circulating U.S. Coin Programs” which describes the history and facts about many of the circulating coin programs created by the United States Mint to help inspire a younger generation of coin collectors.
Along with this award, I was also awarded $500 from Whitman Publishing which went towards the purchase of 40 Red Books which will all be donated to all of the 40 young numismatists attending this year’s Witter Coin University in San Francisco in July.
I would like to thank the ANA (@americanumismatic) for this award, and I would also like to thank Seth Chandler (@wittercoin) for the incredible opportunity to attend Witter Coin University last year.While here at the 2024 ANA Summer Seminar, I was awarded the 1st Place Kenneth E.

- Today, I had a pretty great day at the North County Monthly Coin Show here in Anaheim, CA. I purchased several cool coins including my first ever trade dollar.
In fact, this show was the first ever coin show I’ve ever been to, back in August of 2017.
Just out of curiosity, I’d like to ask you guys, what was the first coin show you guys ever attended? Feel free to comment about!
