Announcing the 2025
1794 Microgrants & Emerging Numismatist Program
What do you want to explore? Tell us what you need, why, and how it connects to our mission.
Microgrants
$1794 to help you achieve your goals — whether it’s for an on-going project, your classroom , plane fare and registration to numismatic conferences, art supplies for a cultural heritage project, or simply to get you over the line on that research project you’ve been working on. The only requirements are that whatever you use the funds for, it should connect explicitly your goals to our mission statement. 18 or older only, please. We funded five 1794 microgrants in 2024. In 2025, we will fund seven microgrants.
Curious about numismatics, but not sure where to start? Have you been following the coin world for a while, and are ready to dive deeper?
The Emerging Numismatist Program
This year, we are introducing three $1000 Emerging Numismatist Grants. Emerging Numismatists are people who have begun to study coins, but may be in search of a way to deepen their interest or involvement. If you are selected, we will match you with a “numis-mentor” and the money you receive can fund travel to a convention, go towards books, or even a numismatics-related a course. Anyone, at any age, can be an emerging numismatist! Many people pick up the hobby later in life, so if you’re interested in getting into coins, this is the grant for you.
