A good move. The American Numismatic Society has announced that from June 1, 2022, Dr. Nathan T. Elkins will be joining the ANS full time as Deputy Director. This is good news. Dr Elkins of course is well-known for his stance on ethical (and unethical) collecting of ancient coins that has in the past bought him the antagonism (and not infrequently personal attacks) of the lobbyists and advocates of no-questions-asked numismatic market in the US. So it is gratifying to see him receiving this recognition, and the Society no doubt will benefit. Congratulations.
Excellent choice! Thumbs up!
