Typically, a Youth-Friendly Dealer welcomes Young Numismatists (YN’s) to his/her business by creating a safe and welcoming environment in their store. This can be done by mentoring youngsters in the hobby and encouraging parents to get their children involved in numismatics. Often Youth-Friendly Dealers hire YN’s to work part-time in their store and look for ways to help children get the education they need to become advanced and thoughtful collectors.

Dealers who are part of the program broaden their customer base by forming long-term relationships with an enthusiastic younger audience. Most importantly, you will be able to shape the future of the hobby by mentoring the next generation of collectors and instilling the values of integrity and scholarship that makes numismatics the hobby of a lifetime.
