Seattle and University Coin Clubs Merge

The Seattle Coin Club and the University Coin Club elected to merge in January 2003 to form the Seattle Numismatic Society (SNS). Both clubs had a final meeting and holiday party in December 2002 before the merger.

The Seattle Coin Club was founded in 1936, and the University Coin Club was founded in 1960. Although the UCC met near the University of Washington, it was not affiliated with the university. The merged club is a member of the American Numismatic Association, with the Seattle club's old membership number, C-5592.

Meeting Location

SNS meetings are held at the McClure Middle School, 1915 1st Ave W, Seattle, WA 98119 (Queen Anne Hill), at 7:15 PM on the 3rd Thursday of most months.
