  • EXHIBIT DESCRIPTION

    To assure that your exhibit is placed in the proper class and evaluated by the correct team of judges, you must state your exhibit title and describe the numismatic purpose of your exhibit in about 100 words, as well as provide a description of the numismatic material you are using to support your theme. The theme statement will be used to describe your exhibit in a booklet that will be distributed in the collector gallery.
  • This inventory may be changed before arriving at the convention.
  • NEW EXHIBIT CONTAINING MATERIAL FROM A PREVIOUS WINNING EXHIBIT

    An exhibit that has won the best-of-show award at any ANA convention, or an exhibit that has won two first place awards (even in different classes) at National Money Shows, may not be entered again in competition. A new exhibit, using the same numismatic material as was used in the above-mentioned winning exhibits may be entered in competition if the exhibitor can satisfy to the ANA that the exhibit has completely changed in nature.

    If you wish to enter an exhibit that contains numismatic material from a previous winning exhibit into a competitive class, use the space below to provide detailed inventories of the previously winning exhibit and the present exhibit as well as an explanation of how the present exhibit’s presentation differs from that of earlier exhibits. Attach additional sheets if necessary.

    This information will be reviewed by the ANA National Exhibits Coordinator and the ANA Exhibit Committee Chairman who will decide whether to accept the present application. You will be notified in writing of the decision. Should the eligibility of your exhibit come under question during its set-up at the convention, the chief judge, the assistant chief judge or the exhibits committee chairman may reevaluate your exhibit and make a ruling on your eligibility to compete.
