The 1st Quarter 2026 edition of the PNNA’s publication, The Nor’wester, is now available online at https://pnna.org/news/pdf/PNNAnews2026_Q1.pdf.
As announced previously, there will be only two main editions of The Nor’wester each year, for the spring convention and the fall coin show. The other two editions will be smaller like this edition. This change allows the two main editions to have more pages, more articles and stories, more photos, and additional dealer ads if requested.
Summary of 1st Quarter content:
- PNNA President’s message by Rick Schulz.
- A cancellation notice for the BECC coin show, normally held in January in Kent, Wash.
- A notice about moving the PNNA spring convention and coin show from Tukwila, Wash., to Portland, Ore.
- Other PNNA news including brief mentions of collector exhibits, annual awards, and the upcoming nomination and election of the PNNA board of directors for 2026-2028.
- An excellent article, “An SOS with special meaning,” by Dennis Halladay.
- PNNA scholarship application for ANA Summer Seminar 2026. Or get the scholarship application form online and apply before the end of February!
Back issues of The Nor’wester are available online.
Once again, thank you for your interest in the PNNA!
Sincerely,
Eric Holcomb
PNNA Editor/Webmaster
