Some 40 attendees were present. Donald L. Hill, current Corresponding secretary and librarian for the California State Numismatic Association represented CSNA. Lloyd G. Chan represented the Northern California Numismatic Association.

The 2018 officers were installed: Ed Hohe, president; Jay Coffee, vice president; Ron Korock, treasurer; Joyce Korock, recording secretary; Eric Groosens, corresponding secretary, and Syd Kass, director emeritus.

President Hohe bestowed numerous Certificates of Commendation for those who served and assisted the club in 2017, continuing a longtime tradition of the club to recognize its devoted members. These mounted certificates were prepared by Joyce Smith.

NCNA, in its capacity to cite and to credit those around Northern California, presented engraved medals. Richard Farber and Deana Gilbeau received President’s Medals from NCNA President Chan. Darrell Rose and Eric Grossens were given the coveted Donnell Award, named for the late and much beloved Gordon R. Donnell (1935-2010), who was a fixture and strong supporter for Northern California organized numismatics.
