PNG Announced a Dealers-Only Dealer Day for April 22, 2026, Ahead of the CSNS Convention
CoinNews reported on January 21, 2026, that the Professional Numismatists Guild (PNG) would host a dealers-only PNG Dealer Day on Wednesday, April 22, 2026, in Schaumburg, Illinois, a Chicago suburb. The event was to be held in conjunction with the 87th annual Central States Numismatic Society (CSNS) convention, April 23-25, at the same venue, and was to be open to PNG members and to CSNS member-dealers.
Correction (Oct 13, 2026): We rewrote the headline, summary and body to match the source. We removed an unsupported figure (5-8% annual growth in the rare coin market over the past decade), analysis claiming that dealer-to-dealer trading improves market liquidity and price transparency, and references to coins as an inflation hedge, and corrected the statement that the event was restricted to PNG members: the source says CSNS member-dealers could also take part. The previous headline was "PNG Dealer Day 2026: B2B Liquidity Surge Signals Rare Coin Market Acceleration."
This article is based on an event announcement reported by CoinNews on January 21, 2026. The event was announced for April 2026.
The Professional Numismatists Guild (PNG) announced that it would host a dealers-only PNG Dealer Day on Wednesday, April 22, 2026, in conjunction with the 87th annual Central States Numismatic Society (CSNS) convention, April 23-25, in the Chicago suburb of Schaumburg, Illinois.
Who could attend
In addition to PNG members, CSNS dealers were also invited to participate. PNG Executive Director John Feigenbaum said that, as in 2025, the event would be open to all PNG member-dealers and to CSNS member-dealers holding tables at the 2026 show, as well as other CSNS member-dealers who purchase an admission pass.
Admission was to be free for PNG members and $100 for non-member dealers. Dealers without tables at the show would have to show proof of their tax identification number to buy admission.
Feigenbaum said last year's PNG Dealer Days at Central States and the Whitman Baltimore Expo were "resoundingly successful." CSNS President Mitch Ernst said, "We are proud of our relationship with PNG."
Venue and schedule
PNG Dealer Day and the Central States show were scheduled at the Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center, 1551 North Thoreau Drive, in Schaumburg. Discount room rates of $179 per night (plus taxes) were available at the adjoining Renaissance Hotel. Parking at the hotel and convention center was to be free.
According to Central States Convention Manager Cindy Wibker, PNG Day would end at 4:00 PM, after which CSNS table holders could set up for the convention between 4:00 and 7:00 PM without waiting to enter the exhibit hall.
PNG was founded in 1955. Its 2026 Dealer Days were planned near Chicago in April and in Baltimore in November.
