Foreign (Non-US) Numismatic Associations

Since this is the “darkside”, and as a logical (I think) extension of the current ANA thread, I wonder if any board members (with apologies to those outside of the US) are members of foreign numismatic assiciations.

I would think that Britain and Canada are logical candidates, but I can think of others like Australia, NZ or even France.

What say all of you??

Hmm.. never thought of that, good question. I'd be interested to hear what others say.. in the meantime I think I'll do some web-research

I'm a member of the U.S. Mexican Numismatic Association (USMexNA). Based in the US, but deals with Mexican numismatics.

I'm a member of the Greek Numismatic Association (Panellinia Nomismatiki Enosi ) that deals with modern (1828 todate) Greek coins only; needs to be relocated and start accepting members from scratch.Too many crooks around.

The serious organization is the one that deals with ancients.

There is a common numismatic association for Scandinavia (don't know its name in English) that I have considered becoming a member of. They have some good auctions... only problem is that they are held in Copenhagen and that is pretty far from where I live... so I'm not that busy becoming a member.

There is a national organization based out of Dallas, TX called Numismatics International. Very reasonable to join, with a bimonthly (?) journal and a lending library that has all sorts of obscure sources. They have get-togethers at all the national shows. I've been a member now for two years and enjoy it a lot. See here: Numismatics International Homepage.
