Newman Portal Adds FUN Convention Video

The Florida United Numismatists (FUN) winter and summer conventions are two of the most prominent events on the annual coin calendar, with the winter edition being especially attractive to collectors seeking warmer climes. Indeed, FUN describes itself as a "snow-free coin show." With the assistance of FUN board member Steve Martin, Newman Portal has added 12 videos representing educational presentations from the January 2025 convention. Included are David Harper, former Numismatic News editor, presenting his "Ten Numismatic Predictions for 2025." Harper reviews his performance on last year's predictions (a rare bit of accountability in today's world!) and issues a new set of prognostications for 2025. Among other sessions are Tom Walker speaking on the detection of cleaned coins, Bill Jones holding forth on early Lincoln cents, and John Zampedro presenting on "Errors 101." Many thanks to Randy Campbell for continuing to organize the FUN convention educational forums.
