See above for the results of this year’s competitive displays. There was also one non-competitive exhibit displayed, by James Reinders, titled Numismatics 101.

Congratulations to all the winners. They will receive award plaques for their entries. Thank you to the judges listed above, to Eric Holcomb for serving as Chief Judge, and to Dan Vornbrock for serving as Exhibit Chairman again this year. Their work was very much appreciated.
