Dear fellow numismatists, The Windsor Coin Club and the Royal Oak Coin Club welcome their fellow Collectors, Hobbyists, and Dealers, to the Michigan State Numismatic Society's 61st spring numismatic convention at Macomb Community College in Warren, Michigan. We have worked hard along with dozens of MSNS volunteers to bring you the best possible convention that money CAN buy - all at no charge to you! We hope that you will take the time to enjoy all of the different features of this convention: 1) Over 100 companies, 170 dealers and assistants, and 155 tables, and the addition of World Wide Traders. 2) We are celebrating our 60th Anniversary. We hope you enjoy the exhibit showing the past MSNS memorabilia and the celebrations planned. 3) Fascinating lectures and dozens of museum-quality exhibits. We hope you enjoy the convention and surrounding facilities here in Warren.
