Many of you know Charmy Harker (“The Penny Lady”®) from her extensive message board posts and very active promotion of women in numismatics. On Friday evening, at the ANA Convention banquet, Charmy was honored for her achievements with the Elvira Clain-Stefanelli award. Here is the facebook comment and a couple of photos borrowed from her account.
I am deeply honored and grateful to the American Numismatic Association to receive the Elvira Clain-Stefanelli award tonight at the ANA banquet. I was so touched by all the kind words that were said about me that it left me emotional and speechless! And the medal and plaque are beautiful and will be treasured.

Simply outstanding!
Congrats! Well deserved!
Congratulations.
Keep it up.
Having/ having had a passing, nodding acquaintance with both ladies, I like Charmy a lot better than Mrs. Clain-Stefanelli. Mrs. Clain-Stefanelli and Mrs. Florence Schook came out of the same mould. Worry, worry. And yes, Charmy did earn this one.
Congrats Charmy!
Congrats Charmy. One of the better show reporters on the boards for sure.

Well deserved. Congrats.
Here's the award description from the ANA website:

The website should be updated with the 2015, 2016 and 2017 winners. It would also be nice to have profiles of each of the winners that is mentioned in the announcements.
congratulations
Thanks for sharing and letting us know about this well deserved honor.
Well done Charmy!

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
Congrats, Charmy!
That's great- congratulations!

WTG Charm. You deserve it girl!
Wow, thank you Roger!! I hadn't checked the message boards since I arrived in Denver for the ANA show because I was so busy throughout the entire week. So when I opened up the message board site this morning and saw Roger's post and all your wonderful comments, I again got a little teary eyed. I am so very touched, humbled and grateful to all of you for your kind and caring support of me throughout all the years I've been on these boards and want you to know how much it means to me.
I just arrived home last night and am pretty wiped out right now. It was a long but very successful show for me with lots of events to attend. After I relax for a bit, I look forward to putting together another show report for you which should be up in a day or two. Thank you again for each of your kind comments and support, you folks are the best!

Congratulations!
It's not like you have to sing for your supper but you'll have an audience anyway.
Mebbe we should all wear dancing shoes.
Congratulations. Well deserved. Charmy is one of those "get it done" type of people. Maybe she should fun for Board of Governors!
Congratulations Charmy.... Well deserved award. Your activities (i.e. displays, show attendance, show reporting and coin knowledge) all support the award. I have a treasured coin from you that has a special place in my collection... I look forward to your great show report. Cheers, RickO
Welcome home, and having read the description of the purpose of the award, I think it is well deserved! Have a restful, rest of the weekend!
Well deserved. Congrats.

I met Charmy at the Boston ANA. She's one of the classiest people I've met, both inside numismatics and out. We all look forward to your reports and are proud that "one of our own" has been honored. WTG!
Kudos to Charmy!! Well done!
I continue to be overwhelmed with all the love and support from you folks - thank you, thank you, thank you!
(And though I am very grateful to the ANA and the Board of Governors and all they do to try to make the world of numismatics a better place, rest assured, I have NO plans to run for the ANA Board.)
