Club History

The Wilmington Coin Club is chartered as a nonprofit corporation under the laws of the State of Delaware and is dedicated to promoting interest in and enjoyment of the collection and study of coins, paper currency, tokens and medals, and was created for the benefit of its members and the local numismatic community. The original Wilmington Coin Club (WCC) was founded approximately seventy-five years ago, but ceased to meet sometime during the 1950's. In 1960's, the Club was reorganized and has held regular meetings ever since. WCC is dedicated to promoting interest in coin collecting through both social and educational activities. Our membership ranges from beginners to experts, and visitors are always welcome to attend our regular meetings.

With the exceptions of May, August, and December, the Club meets on the 4th Tuesday of the month at the Luthern Church of The Good Shepherd, 1530 Foulk Road, in Wilmington. Meetings begin at 7:30 PM and end before 10:00 PM, usually by 9:30. Excluding the annual Show and Tell meeting in July, the highlight of each regular meeting is a program on some topic of numismatic interest, frequently presented by a nationally recognized expert.
