The British Numismatic Society

[jimmy_goodfella]

im thinking of becoming a member,i was wondering if anyone here is already a member and what the benifits are.The book they publish in hardback for members yearly alone seems to justify the 32 pound yearly dibs.

and the library they have where you can go anytime too and also take books out of seems fantastic idea.

looking through there website seems a great idea to me so i would like to know if there are any members here and how you have found being a member.

regards

I have not got time enough to become a member. I will definately become a member in about five years time or so........

I'm a member, as you'll notice from the link on the homepage. The main reason I joined is to have the logo and some kind of official recognition on the website. They are not a trade body, but I joined the US version, so I thought it wouldn't hurt. A few dealer friends are also members.

You do indeed get use of the Library and a big printed index of the British Numismatic Journal from the last 100 years. And you get invited to events and the oportunity to purchase the official medal, with your name engraved on it.

There is no doubt that they are the best numismatic society for the research of British related coins.
