The FUN Convention, presented by Florida United Numismatists, is one of the largest coin shows in the United States and the first major numismatic event of each year. Held every January — in recent years at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando — it is widely regarded as a bellwether that sets the tone for the year's market.
The show pairs a large national bourse with a major official auction, drawing thousands of collectors and well over a thousand dealers across its run.
Florida United Numismatists was founded in 1955, and its January convention has grown into one of the premier shows on the U.S. numismatic calendar.
Expect a large dealer bourse, a major public auction conducted by the show's official auctioneer, and an extensive educational and exhibit program — competitive exhibits, lectures, a Young Numismatist area and Scout merit-badge sessions. As the year's opening major show, FUN is also where many dealers and grading services open their season.
