How Coin Clubs and Show Promoters Get Listed in Numismatic News Show Guides
Updated
Coin clubs, organizations, and show promoters can submit free listings for the 2027 Coin Show & Auction Guide through November 2, 2026, according to Numismatic News. The site also maintains a Show Calendar that lets organizers "get your listing added online and in print." Both routes are aimed at the same audience—clubs, organizations, and promoters who want collectors to find their events.
The Two Listing Routes
Numismatic News offers two related but distinct places for event information:
| Listing type | What it covers | Deadline / timing | Cost signal |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2027 Coin Show & Auction Guide | Coin shows and auctions in the annual guide | Submit by November 2, 2026 | Free listings (stated in the site excerpt) |
| Show Calendar | Ongoing event calendar, online and in print | No deadline given in available material | Not stated |
The guide is the time-bound opportunity: it is compiled for a specific year, and the submission window closes well before the year begins. The Show Calendar appears to be the ongoing listing channel, described as appearing both online and in print.
Who Should Submit
The site names its intended submitters directly: coin clubs, organizations, and show promoters. If you run a regional club show, a national convention, or an auction tied to a show, you fall within that group. Individual collectors looking to attend events are the audience for these listings, not the submitters.
How to Submit
The available page material confirms the offer and the deadline but does not reproduce the submission form or the exact fields required. Based on what the site states, the practical steps are:
- Confirm your event details before starting—dates, venue, host organization, and whether an auction is part of the show.
- Go to Numismatic News and locate the guide or calendar submission entry point. The site's Show Calendar section explicitly invites organizers to add a listing; the guide announcement points to the same publisher.
- Submit before November 2, 2026 if you want to be in the 2027 Coin Show & Auction Guide. The site describes these listings as free.
- Verify your listing once the guide or calendar is published, and check both the online and print versions if you submitted to the calendar.
Because the exact form fields are not documented in the available material, treat step 2 as a "find the submission page on the site" task rather than a fixed menu path.
Common Pitfalls
- Missing the guide deadline. November 2, 2026 is the only date the site gives for the 2027 guide. A listing submitted after that date will not make the annual guide, though the ongoing calendar may still be an option.
- Assuming the calendar and the guide are the same thing. They are separate channels with different timing. Submitting to one does not automatically place you in the other.
- Leaving out auction details. The guide is explicitly a Show & Auction guide, so promoters running an auction alongside a bourse should make that clear in their submission.
- Expecting a paid placement. The site describes guide listings as free for clubs and promoters; nothing in the available material suggests a fee for a standard listing.
What to Do Next
If your event falls in 2027, treat the November 2, 2026 deadline as your planning anchor and submit the guide listing first, then add the event to the Show Calendar for ongoing visibility. If your event is sooner, the calendar is the relevant channel—check the site's Show Calendar section for the current submission route, since the available material does not specify a calendar deadline.
