Digitizing the Medieval and Modern Collection

We are pleased to announce that the ANS will begin enhancing and further developing the digitization of our Medieval and Early Modern Collection, with an emphasis on theapproximately 22,000 coins that represent Europe in the years 1500-1700.

?This vital area of the Society's collection can now be addressed thanks to a grant from an anonymous donor of up to $200,000 over 12 months, which will help support thisproject. This magnanimous donation comes at a critical time for the ANS, which like many other nonprofits is being challenged by the ongoing economic crisis resulting from theCOVID-19 pandemic. Such a financial investment in the Society's future provides encouragement and inspiration to us all.
