The American Numismatic Association (ANA) is currently accepting proposals for the 2020 Maynard Sundman Littleton Coin Company Lecture Series. Presentations will be given August 5, 2020 during the symposium at the Pittsburgh World’s Fair of Money®. Proposals must be received by April 3.
This year, Americans celebrate the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment to the constitution’s passage that gave women the right to vote. In honor of this landmark event, the Maynard Sundman Lecture theme is “Women in Numismatics.”
Those who wish to present at this year’s symposium must submit a lecture summary of 500 words or less. Each summary should contain an introduction, a brief discussion of the subject, sources and research method. Summaries will be reviewed and speakers evaluated and chosen based on originality, persuasiveness and relevance to the symposium topic. Selected presenters will receive a $250 honorarium.
Electronic submissions are preferred and can be emailed or mailed to:
