錢幣學：對童子軍的有益而有趣的愛好

如果您在沙發墊子下挖掘或紮根於汽車，您可以找到童子軍的下一個愛好，這是一項有意義而令人著迷的努力，可以教會他們歷史，經濟學和收藏的樂趣。

Numismatics is a rewarding and fascinating hobby that can teach Scouts about history, economics and the enjoyment of collecting.

錢幣學是一種有意義而有趣的愛好，可以教童子軍有關歷史，經濟學和收藏的享受。

It’s a hobby that can begin with a glance under the couch cushions or a quick search through the car. Maybe your Scout will find a coin that sparks their interest or a bill with a unique design.

這是一種愛好，可以從沙發墊下面的一眼看，也可以快速搜索汽車。也許您的偵察兵會找到一枚硬幣，以引發他們的興趣或具有獨特設計的賬單。

Cultures began making metal and paper currency hundreds of years ago as a replacement for barter systems. People began collecting these currencies as early as the 15th century for their historical significance and not just their monetary value.

文化開始生產數百年前的金屬和紙幣，以替代易貨系統。人們早在15世紀就開始收集這些貨幣的歷史意義，而不僅僅是其貨幣價值。

Scouts can enter the world of numismatics via the Coin Collecting merit badge or the Adventures in Coins Adventure for Wolf Cub Scouts.

童子軍可以通過收集功績徽章的硬幣或《狼幼崽童子軍的硬幣冒險冒險》進入數值世界。

If you and your Scout are in the Atlanta area later this month, you both can attend the annual National Money Show®, organized by the American Numismatic Association (ANA).

如果您和您的偵察兵本月晚些時候在亞特蘭大地區，您都可以參加由美國錢幣協會（ANA）組織的年度國家MoneyShow®。

This show, slated for Feb. 27 through March 1, showcases millions of dollars’ worth of rare and intriguing valuables. Visitors can buy, sell and trade with hundreds of coin dealers, attend presentations from numismatists, and bring in their collections to discover how much they might be worth.

該節目定於2月27日至3月1日，展示了價值數百萬美元的稀有和吸引人的貴重物品。訪客可以與數百個硬幣經銷商購買，出售和交易，參加錢幣主義者的演講，並帶來收藏品以發現他們的價值。

On that Saturday, Scouts can attend the Young Collectors Corner Program, a free three-hour introduction to numismatics. The program is open to youth ages 5-17, with instructors available to teach the Coin Collecting merit badge. Attendees can also earn a Fun With Money patch. This program helps novice collectors learn about numismatics at a basic level. Scouts can register here.

在那個星期六，童子軍可以參加年輕的收藏家角計劃，這是一個免費的三個小時的錢幣介紹。該計劃對5-17歲的青年開放，教師可以教授收集功績徽章的硬幣。與會者還可以用貨幣補丁賺取樂趣。該計劃可幫助新手收藏家在基本層面學習數字學。偵察員可以在這裡註冊。

Admission is $10, but it’s free for ANA members and children under 12. And on the Saturday of the show, it’s free for everyone.

入場費為10美元，但對於ANA成員和12歲以下的兒童來說是免費的。在演出的星期六，這是免費的。

Even if you cannot attend the National Money Show, joining the ANA can connect you and your Scout to regional shows and clubs around the country.

即使您不能參加國家貨幣展覽會，加入ANA也可以將您和您的偵察員與全國各地的區域秀和俱樂部聯繫起來。

Membership with the ANA connects you with fellow collectors and provides access to educational resources, virtual Money Museum exhibits and the monthly The Numismatist magazine. You can find clubs near you as well as coin dealers.

與ANA的會員資格將您與收藏家聯繫起來，並提供教育資源，虛擬貨幣博物館展覽以及每月《貨幣主義者》雜誌的訪問權限。您可以在附近找到俱樂部以及硬幣經銷商。

Educational resources are led by numismatic experts in Aristotle’s Vault, an online hub of videos teaching core necessities on coin grading, identifying counterfeits and more. Coin collecting is great for teaching art, history and economics. Each piece has a story to tell, and coins connect collectors to the past because they aren’t the only ones who have touched those coins.

教育資源是由亞里士多德金庫（Aristotle's Vault）的錢幣專家領導的，這是一個在線視頻中心，教授硬幣分級的核心必需品，識別偽造等等。收集硬幣非常適合教授藝術，歷史和經濟學。每個作品都有一個故事要講，硬幣將收藏家與過去聯繫起來，因為他們並不是唯一觸摸這些硬幣的人。

A youth gold (digital) membership, available for free when Scouts complete the Coin Collecting merit badge, gives youth the opportunity to earn free collectible coins, learn about currency, participate in fun online activities and bid in monthly auctions using “funny money.” They can even earn a scholarship to a weeklong summer seminar, nicknamed “Coin Camp.” You can learn more about the Young Numismatist memberships here.

青年黃金（數字）會員資格，當偵察員完成收集的硬幣收集徽章時免費獲得，使青年有機會賺取免費的收藏硬幣，了解貨幣，參加有趣的在線活動並使用“有趣的錢”進行每月拍賣。他們甚至可以為一個為期一周的夏季研討會獲得獎學金，稱為“硬幣營”。您可以在此處了解有關年輕貨幣主義會員資格的更多信息。

You can be rewarded for getting good grades in school with free collectible coins available for three or more A’s on a youth’s report card each marking period. Youth members can also earn coins by writing articles and making presentations.
