Commemorative "slab" awarded to Cliff Mishler
- NGC, one of the largest coin verification and grading services, created a "sample" slab to commerate the RRVCC's 60th annual coin show. A limited run of fifty (n=50) 1956-D Lincoln Cents were encapulated and sold at the show. Thank you to Jason J. for his work on this project.
- ANA Governor Cliff Mishler is a member of the RRVCC and has been a great supporter of our club. We awarded him the commemerative slab that matched his membership number.

The 60th Anniversary of the RRVCC's affiliation with the ANA was recognized at our January 2016 coin show. The certificate (above) was presented by past ANA president Cliff Mishler. The RRVCC would like to thank the founding men and women who started it all back in 1956. What a great, long-standing tradition for Fargo-Moorhead, that is still going strong with almost 100 members on our roster.
The Red River Valley Coin Club was pleased to make a $500 donation to the Moorhead Public Library in November 2015 (above). The library will receive matching funds to help remodel their meeting rooms, which the RRVCC has been privileged to use of many years.

Lifetime Membership Awards
Lifetime membership in the Red River Valley Coin Club is awarded to individuals to honor long and distinguished service to the RRVCC and/or the hobby in general. Its primary intent is to recognize long term members of the RRVCC who have a sustained record of regular participation in club activities such as meetings, coin shows, auctions, and/or those who have served the club as officers. Non-members can be recognized with the lifetime membership for similar sustained and distinguished association with the RRVCC or for significant contributions to numismatics at the national or international level.
