Young collectors are the future of numismatics. OCCC has fulfilled its goal of having one of the best YN programs in the state. At each meeting, Young Numismatists (YNs) receive auction money that they can spend later in the meeting at the YN auction. Each meeting for juniors is divided into approximately fifteen minutes of education and fifteen minutes of auction time. YNs can earn auction money by doing projects, writing articles for the Sand Dollar, or doing "Show & Tells" at meetings.
