PNNA / WCC Fall Coin Shows
Beginning in 2020-21, separate fall shows were scheduled in Seattle (Tukwila) and Portland, with the PNNA sponsoring the Tukwila show and the Willamette Coin Club (WCC) sponsoring the Portland show.
This year’s PNNA fall coin show has been scheduled for October 6-8, 2023 in Tukwila. More information will be posted, however, most show details are expected to be similar to the 2022 show described below.
The WCC Portland fall coin show is scheduled for November 4-5, 2023 in Clackamas.
IT’S OVER! Both the Tukwila and Portland fall coin shows are complete for 2022! We hope you enjoyed the shows.

The location of the exhibits was in the room (racquetball court/fitness room) across the hall from the bourse entrance, as at most past shows.
