NCBA Contributes $5,000 To Support PNG Nexgen Mentorship Program

The National Coin & Bullion Association (NCBA) is proud to reemphasize its commitment to fostering the next generation of numismatists by contributing $5,000 to the Professional Numismatists Guild’s (PNG) NexGen Mentorship Program. This decision, supported unanimously by the NCBA board of directors, underscores our dedication to the future of the numismatic community.

The NexGen Mentorship Program is a vital initiative connecting emerging numismatists with seasoned mentors, thereby fostering skills, relationships, and professional growth within the industry. With this financial support, NCBA sees a meaningful opportunity to collaborate with PNG as we launch the DiscoverNCBA promotion in January 2025 during the Florida United Numismatists Convention. DiscoverNCBA aims to empower young coin dealers by providing access to essential resources, industry connections, and educational tools tailored to their success.

“NCBA’s contribution strengthens NexGen’s mission to connect and inspire young numismatists,” said PNG executive director John Feigenbaum. “Together, we’re building a foundation for future leaders in our field.”

“This partnership aligns perfectly with NCBA’s vision of empowering young professionals,” added NCBA executive director David Crenshaw. “With NexGen and DiscoverNCBA, we’re creating a strong support network for the next generation in numismatics.”

Through joint efforts like NexGen and DiscoverNCBA, NCBA and PNG can build a robust support network for young professionals, equipping them with guidance and opportunities critical for long-term success in the numismatic and bullion markets. We are enthusiastic about this partnership and look forward to its positive impact on the future of our industry.
