25.01.2020 - [Canceled] IAPN Congress May 28-31, 2020. MARSEILLE, France.

Dear Members, / Chers Membres,   In the view of the recent events and of the decisions taken overall in the world, it appears that it would be too uncertain to try and maintain our Marseille gathering of the end of May. Au vu des événements récents, et des décisions prises partout dans le monde, il semble trop hasardeux d’essayer de maintenir notre réunion de Marseille de la fin du mois de mai.  Therefore, in full agreement with the organisers, we have decided to cancel the General Assembly of Marseille of the end of May 2020.C’est pourquoi, en accord avec les organisateurs, nous avons décidé que l’Assemblée Générale de Marseille de la fin mai 2020 est annulée.   We will think about what must and will be done in the full respect of our rules and in the best interest of all, and will let you know as soon as possible. Nous allons réfléchir à ce qui peut et doit être fait dans le plein respect de nos règles et au mieux des intérêts de chacun, et vous en informerons dès que possible.  I wish you all to go through those though times as well as possible, and remain,Yours sincerely. Je vous souhaite de traverser ces temps difficiles le mieux possible, et vous adresse mes salutations les meilleures. 

UPDATE: The General Assembly of the IAPN 2020 in the city of Marseille,
from Thursday May 28th to Sunday May 31st, 2020 has been Canceled.

18.11.2019 - Alert Stolen Colombian Collection (Reported Nov. 1, 2019 – updated Nov 18)

Dear numismatic friends,

We have the unfortunate task of informing everyone that a treasure of Colombian numismatics has been stolen. Mr. Gregorio Toulemonde’s apartment, located in Bogota, Colombia, was broken into by a gang of criminals who took his important collection of silver and copper coins of Colombia. The stolen coins were mainly minor pieces from colonial times to the 20th century, many of them unique and/or finest known. This group represents high value for the history of Colombia, in addition to the monetary value. More than 50 years of dedication to numismatics have been unfairly lost in just a few minutes. Any offering of Colombian coins at this point should be closely scrutinized. A detailed list of the stolen coins will be provided soon. A reward is being offered for the recovery of the coins.

For more information on this issue please contact us or Mr. Toulemonde using WhatsApp via +57 (314) 393-5158.

Thank you for your serious attention to this matter.
