Young Numismatists (YNs)
The ANA has many programs for YNs. There are two programs in which YNs can earn free coins by completing coin-related acitivities. These programs are the Early American Copper Project and the David R. Cervin Ancient Coin Project.
The ANA also has a YN Dollars program in which YNs earn YN Dollars for different activities. They can spend these YN Dollars at the ANA Summer Convention at the annual YN auction.
The Young Numismatist of the Year award has been given by the ANA every year since 1968. Many former winners of the award are now prominent numismatic professionals, or have distinguished themselves in other areas.

Famous quotes containing the word young:
“In the hope that it may be no intrusion upon the sacredness of your sorrow, I have ventured to address you this tribute to the memory of my young friend, and your brave and early fallen child. May God give you that consolation which is beyond all earthly power.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
