While I lived in West Palm Beach, there was a coin club (I did not join - work times etc.)... But that was '84-'89. I am sure there are several in South Florida. Cheers, RickO
Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?
In theory there should be more coin clubs in Florida. Many people retire to Florida with their lifetime collection of coins. Where they go from there nobody knows.

I believe mine (coin club) is bigger than yours (coin club).
I am sure it is. We have about 20 to 25 members at each meeting.

I would call it a national club before I called it regional. I personally consider it a state club unless you consider Florida a region! Regional are the likes of the BRNA(Blue Ridge Numismatic Association) + CSNS(Central States Numismatic Society). After all, FUN does stand for Florida United Numismatists!

There's an Orlando coin club.

How about looking up Florida Coin clubs on Google?

There are clubs all over the state.

There should be a coin club in Ocala and Spring Hill
For sure Ft Myers - the club president frequently sells extra holiday party giveaway coins on fleaBay. I scored a first-of-a-kind USVI ATB club sample

I believe the largest coin club in the United States is right here in Palm Beach County - the Palm Beach Coin Club!

Hmmmm, Wouldn't FUN be considered a coin club????
I’ll make an inquiry, and post what I am told with @amwldcoin ’s logical comment in mind.

Brandon Coin Club, in the suburbs west of Tampa.
I was told that PBCC is the largest local coin club (Approximately 450 local clubs in U.S.). FUN is a “Regional” club. Not the same.
