I may be first to see Summer Seminar from three distinctlydifferent perspectives: as a student, an instructor and, now, asANA Executive Director.

I attended my first Summer Seminar about 20 years ago and then, a few years later, gave my first bull session on the “California Mid-Winter Exposition of 1894.” Not long after that I taught my first class on So-Called Dollars, which I’ve taughtthree times in the past six years.

I’m proud to be a hardcore numismatist and always have beenvery engaged in Summer Seminar. So much so that I started my new duties at the ANA a week before Summer Seminar started last summer,rather than taking a few weeks to movefrom California and get settled in Col-orado Springs. I felt Summer Seminaroffered an incredible opportunity totalk with the ANA’s most active and

engaged members about what’s most important to them — bothas Association members and as Summer Seminar participants.

I talked with attendees at lunch and dinner, at evening eventsand bull sessions and at my favorite hideaway: the MoonlightLounge. The input I received, combined with my own experi-ences, has helped guide me in a variety of decisions concerningANA priorities and the need to give our members greater added value.

All of my discussions reinforced a simple fact: People loveSummer Seminar and don’t want it changed. But they also seeplenty of opportunities for ongoing improvement. As a student, I often picked classes based on who was instructing. Taking acourse from someone like Ken Bressett, David Schenkman orJohn Kraljevich was as much an honor as it was a great learningexperience.

Given my experience and what I heard last summer, we

decided that themore we could encourage big names in numismatics to teach, thegreater the experience for everyone. This thought has given birth to two new courses for this year: Legends in Numismatics, and the Light of ManyLamps: All-Star Numismatic Symposium.

The Legends of Numismatics features Neil Shafer, Ira Gold-berg, Fred Holabird and Mark Borckardt in Session 1, and KenBressett, Bob Hoge, Dennis Tucker and Beth Deisher in Session 2.The Symposium features hour-long presentations throughouteach week by a variety of highly accomplished numismatists,each discussing areas of expertise or research.

In the future, we hope to build on a new tradition of attractingthe hobby’s biggest names to its best annual educational pro-gram.

After 45 years, Summer Seminar has become that rare eventthat both stays the same and changes — simultaneously. Eachyear there’s an infusion of new students, instructors and classes— all balanced by the return of old students, familiar classes andexperienced instructors.

This year is no different. Our most popular classes, gradingand counterfeit detection, return for an encore along with otherpopular standbys including courses on ancients, paper moneyand world currency.

Nothing enhances the enjoyment of our hobby more than education; it’s why Summer Seminar is so special.

I hope to see you there.

Summer Seminar is a once-a-yearopportunity for numismaticscholarship and camaraderie that

offers students a varied selection ofweek-long courses designed for discov-ery or continued study. For many stu-dents, Summer Seminar is a life-changing event; it has catapulted thecareers of many of the nation’s most re-spected collectors, authors and dealers,and inspired young numismatists tobecome hobby leaders.Now celebrating its

45th year, SummerSeminar again featuresa wide assortment ofclasses to suit your nu-mismatic interests.Whether your focus isancients, paper money,medals or tokens,there’s a class for you.Want to learn to gradecoins, detect counter-feits or understand nu-mismatic valuations?There’s a class for you.Want to learn from thehobby’s legends or par-ticipate in a week-longsymposium? We’ve created newclasses just for you. Most importantly,everyone attending Summer Seminarshares a common trait: a passion fornumismatics.Your classes are true seminars:

students gathered in small groupswith everyone an active participant.You’ll learn from instructors who arerecognized leaders in their fields, andfrom the collective experiences of fel-low students, who range in age fromteenagers to seniors.While the majority of students are

adults, more than 50 young numisma-tists — ages 13-22 — grace SummerSeminar each year, bringing youthfulenthusiasm and new perspectives toclasses. Over the years, many of these

YNs have become hobby leaders, andmany of Summer Seminar’s veteranshave played a key role in encouragingtheir success.YNs stay in a Colorado College

dormitory with counselor supervision.They arrive a day early to allow timefor an off-site dinner and evening tointeract as a group and get to knowone another. YNs also organize andconduct a benefit auction, with all

proceeds directly benefiting the YNSummer Seminar Scholarship Fund,which helps dozens of YNs attend thebest educational event in numismaticsevery year.Students may select from a variety

of tuition and lodging options to meettheir needs, preferences and budget.Most stay in Colorado College campusdorms, but many elect to stay innearby hotels and inns (see pages 18and 19 for details and pricing).Summer Seminar is packed with

activities and learning opportunitiesduring the evening after regularclasses. Mini-seminars offer a chancefor students to take one-or-two-dayevening classes in addition to theirday-time seminars; bull sessions are

more informal gatherings built arounda specific topic or presentation. Laterin the evening, the “Lunar Lounge”provides an opportunity for im-promptu gatherings featuring wide-ranging conversations and, occasion-ally, spontaneous guitar picking andother music.In addition, optional tours, special

events, great food, receptions and ban-quets, and daily opportunities to visit

the ANA’s Edward C. Ro-chette Money Museumand Dwight N. ManleyNumismatic Libraryround out a perfect weekof numismatic immer-sion. Students may selectfrom a variety of activi-ties ranging from attend-ing a Colorado Rockiesbaseball game to de-scending the Molly Kath-leen Mine near CrippleCreek, ascending PikesPeak on the Cog Railway,exploring the nearbyCave of the Winds or at-tending the annual Col-orado Springs Coin

Show. (See page 20 for tour details.)Those not wishing to join an or-

ganized activity may also choose tovisit any of the hundreds of great at-tractions, restaurants and entertain-ment venues of Colorado Springs andthe Pikes Peak region. It’s no accidentthe Pikes Peak region is one of Amer-ica’s most popular family tourist des-tinations.Rarely do students or instructors

attend just one Summer Seminar.More than 70 percent of them comeback time and time again for the edu-cation, friendships and camaraderie.There are reasons our students and in-structors are so loyal and enthusiasticabout Summer Seminar. Try it and see.
