This one-day workshop, presented for only the fourth time ever, is a follow-up of the introductory course that has been presented by the C.N.A. in the past 6 years.  The workshop,  sponsored by the Canadian Numismatic Association will be held Saturday, November 10, 2007 from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the  Humber College 205 Humber College Blvd. Etobicoke, Ontario.

The original course was the first of its kind in the history of the Canadian Numismatic Association and this follow-up workshop delves much deeper into the technical aspects of coin grading, counterfeit detection, fakes and alterations, authentication and coin & paper money preservation.

Coin Grading & Counterfeit Detection (9:10 – 2:00 p.m.)

This course will focus on the practical aspects of grading Canadian decimal coinage as well as detecting coins that have been altered or counterfeited.

Coin & Paper Money Preservation (2:15 – 4:45 p.m.)
