The 8 hour class is designed to provide law-enforcement personnel, including patrol officers, detectives, investigators and prosecutors, with the fundamental investigative techniques, knowledge and understanding to respond effectively to the complex challenges encountered during a numismatic crime.

"The objective is to provide investigative tools and resources to the law enforcement community during the investigation of a numismatic crime," said Doug Davis Founder and President of the Numismatic Crime Information Center.

"In addition to classroom work attendees will enhance their educational experience by walking the bourse floor and observing the many facets of the numismatic world," Davis added

The class is a collaborative effort between the Numismatic Crime Information Center and the American Numismatic Association.

Topics to be covered in the one-day course include:

  • types of coins, medals, tokens and paper money;
  • factors effecting numismatic crime, especially as it relates to counterfeiting;
  • precious metals, including new laws governing the purchase of such metals; crime scene evaluation; jurisdictional issues;
  • EBay and postal crimes;
  • organized crime groups; and
  • a look at the victims of numismatic crimes.

The education of law enforcement in the area of numismatic crime investigations is only one of several strategic initiatives of the Numismatic Crime Information Center.
