The Numismatic Association of Australia acts as a united voice for all the major State numismatic organizations in Australia and has close ties with the Royal Numismatic Society of New Zealand and those Australian public institutions with numismatic collections. The NAA publishes an annual journal of international standard that covers all forms of currency and medals and holds a biennial conference. Membership is made up of collectors, dealers, academics and museum numismatists, and is open to individuals and institutions in Australia and overseas. This Australia Day 2010, NAA member Leslie John Carlisle was awarded the Order of Australia Medal (OAM) for the 'Study and documentation of Australian coins, medals, tokens, memorabilia.' The Numismatic Association of Australia congratulates Les on this thoroughly deserved recognition. The Australasian Tradesmen’s Tokens project is now on-line at Museum Victoria Tradesmen’s Tokens. This comprehensive site includes histories of the issuers and mints as well as guidelines for identification of the different dies used etc. The Australasian Numismatic Challenge is a competitive coin and banknote exhibition organized by the Peel Region Numismatic Group.
