The History

Peterborough Coin Club History

The Purpose

To promote the hobby of numismatics through education, preservation companionship and networking with likeminded collectors

The Mission

The mission of the Peterborough Coin Club is to encourage and promote the study and collection of coins, tokens, paper money, medals, badges, trade money, and other numismatic collectables. The club fosters camaraderie among collectors, supports new and junior members, and provides a welcoming environment for sharing and expanding numismatic knowledge. We strive to be present in the community through coin shows and demonstrations, and off-site activities.
