A fter serving for almost eight years as Governor and Vice President of ANA, I am asking
for your support for my candidacy for President.
Over that time, we have received thousands of ideas from members responding to our request
for your “Two Cents” that will make our association better.
ÇÓ{ As a result of these suggestions I am encouraged and excited about the future of our
association and our hobby in general, but realize we must do more than carry on the worthwhile traditions of the
past by growing membership through vision, innovation, and providing the leadership to implement bold new
initiatives including:

including smart phones, thereby making numismatics relevant today, especially to younger generations.

WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT DON:
“I have known Donald Kagin for more than 50 years and have watched him render service to the ANA,
participate in educational forums, write the definitive book on Pioneer gold and catalog hundreds of auctions.
His years of experience as both a collector and a dealer give him unique perspectives that are exactly what
the ANA needs to continue to move forward and grow. He has the right stuff. I wholeheartedly endorse his
candidacy for ANA President.”
David Ganz, Past ANA President
“The enthusiasm that Don Kagin has for the coin industry would be a wonderful asset as ANA President.
Don has a keen knowledge for what makes coin dealers and collectors tick. His fresh spirited ideas are
necessary for today’s marketplace.”
Robert Brueggeman, Professional Numismatist Guild Executive Director
“I served as an ANA Governor with Don Kagin. He was always quick with insightful suggestions and input,
while being dedicated to collector education. I believe he’ll be an excellent ANA President.”

Support my candidacy for
the ANA Board in 2019
I would like to formally introduce myself to those of
you that don’t already know me. My name is Shanna
Schmidt and I have been active in the field of
numismatics as a dealer since 2005. I specialize in
ancient numismatics, with a particular focus placed on
Greek coinage. I am a full member of the PNG
(member #671) since 2008, a member of the ANA
(member #3130326) as well as the American
Numismatic Society. I served as a former board
member with the International Association of
Professional Numismatists (IAPN).
Prior to working with coins I was employed for 13
years in various advertising firms both domestically
and internationally. In 2005, I started my career in
numismatics working in my father’s company, Harlan
J. Berk Ltd. In 2013, I graduated with a Master’s degree
in Liberal Arts from the University of Chicago. My
Master’s thesis was on the Cultural Property Debate as
it relates specifically to ancient coins. In 2016 I
decided to become an independent coin dealer and
form Shanna Schmidt Numismatics Inc. This enabled
me to focus efforts on individual customers and
building their collections.
While at Harlan J. Berk Ltd., I helped to form the
educational foundation, History in Your Hands, a
non-for-profit 501(c)(3) which was created to bring
students of all ages from kindergarten through
university level in contact with numismatic material
to aide in learning about history.
I feel that I can bring a fresh perspective to the ANA
board of governors with my previous life and
professional experiences. The ANA is a great
organization that is there for both the collector and
dealer. The trade shows that are hosted by the ANA
should be catered to the changing lifestyle of the
younger collector and dealer with an eye on the
steadfast and reliable seasoned older generation.
I believe both can be done and I hope that working
on the board with my fellow board members I can
achieve this.
