The International Bank Note Society Education Program
Moderator, Howard A. Daniel III, manned a club table for IBNS
(and NI, NBS & PCF) at the American Numismatic Association
National Money Show in Portland.
Four hundred packets with a world bank note from IBNS (and
coins from NI) were given to young and new numismatists in the
name of IBNS at the club table. The largest number of packets
were given to boy and girl scouts after they completed a Saturday
class on how to acquire a numismatic merit badge Many
membership applications and IBNS Journals were also given to
collectors who requested them.
There was an International Bank Note Society meeting at
11AM in Room 117 on March 14. About one dozen people
attended the meeting with more IBNS members present than
non-members. There was a show and tell session and then the last
third of the meeting was a Mini-Fest conducted by William Myers
were collectors of MPC and other military monies conducted a
pay call with specially printed notes paid to them. Those without
paybooks were also paid and they were given an explanation of
Mini-Fests, MPC Fests and the MPC Gram.
During the FUN Show in January, Howard made the
arrangements to have a club table at that event for the first time
in January 2010, and a meeting too. He will be writing an article
for the FUN-Topics magazine to explain what IBNS is and to
invite everyone to attend the meeting and to see Howard at the
club table to acquire further information.
Please contact Howard at HADaniel3@msn.com if you have
any questions about the ANA shows or conventions; IBNS
meetings at them; or donations of coins, paper money and/or
references to be given out to young numismatists.

The International Bank Note Society Education Moderator,
Howard A. Daniel III, will be manning a club table for IBNS
(and NI, NBS & PCF) at the American Numismatic Association
World’s Fair of Money in Los Angeles. There will be about 400
free packets with world coins from NI and a banknote from IBNS
to be given to young and new numismatists at the club table.
References will also be given to teachers for using the note in their
classrooms, and to scout counselors in the name of NBS to assist
scouts working on their numismatic merit badge.
The IBNS meeting is at 11 AM on August 8 in a room that
will be identified in the convention program and all IBNS
members are welcome. All attendees will have time to introduce
themselves and to describe one note from their collection or
just bought on the bourse. Members of the Southern California
chapter will be present and given some time in the meeting. Then
Colonel (Dr.) Bill Myers will conduct an MPC Mini-Fest during
the last 15-20 minutes of the meeting. MPC is for Military
Payment Certificates and other military financial instruments
are also represented, but Military Fest Certificates (MFC) will be
“paid” to all attendees. Whether you are a collector of militaria or
not, you will enjoy the Fest.
Howard will also be the moderator of a Numismatics
International (NI) meeting in the same room at 12 PM (Noon)
on the same day. All IBNS members are also welcome to it and
should bring one coin, token or medal from home or one bought
on the bourse to describe during the show and tell part of the
meeting. Everett Jones, an advanced collector and researcher of
chopped coins, will be speaking about his specialty and showing
some examples.
The club table will be located on the bourse and can be a
meeting place for IBNS members. Members can also volunteer to
man it so Howard can look around the bourse and attend other
meetings. Howard is looking forward to meeting new and old
IBNS members in Los Angeles!
For those of you coming to the Los Angeles Convention
Center for the first time, there is a map to the convention
center at www.money.org, and additional information about the
