The American Numismatic Association (ANA) launched a new blog in November. A project that has been in the works for over a year, the new blogfeatures exclusive articles for beginning and intermediate collectors, stories that previously ran in The Numismatist (the ANA's monthly hobbypublication), articles highlighting specimens and collections from the ANA Money Museum and more. Both ANA members and non-members can access theblog.

The name "ANA Coin Press" was selected for the new blog after the Association ran a naming contest. Collectors were asked to submit blog nameideas for the chance to win a prize valued at $100. The winner for the contest is Jake Miller, who received an MS-65 1881-S Morgan dollar as thegrand prize.
