Collectors from across Ontario and beyond will gather this weekend for the National Postage Stamp and Coin Show, set for April 11 to 12 at the Hilton Mississauga/Meadowvale.
The two-day event remains one of Canada’s premier marketplaces for coins, banknotes and related collectibles, with more than 50 professional numismatic and philatelic dealers expected to fill the bourse floor. From Canadian circulation issues and rare coins to paper money, bullion and specialized material, the show offers a broad cross-section of the numismatic market.
Collectors will find a strong numismatic presence throughout the show, with dealers specializing in Canadian and world coins, paper money and exonumia. Many dealers will also be available to offer appraisals, giving attendees an opportunity to better understand the value and significance of their collections.
The show also features an active exhibiting component, including the North Toronto Stamp Club’s annual exhibition and a new single-frame competition for Ontario clubs, providing additional interest for collectors who enjoy the educational side of the hobby.
Doors open at 10 a.m. both days, with the show running until 5 p.m. on Saturday and 3 p.m. on Sunday. Admission is $6 on Saturday and $3 on Sunday, with free parking available at the venue.
A highlight for younger collectors is the popular Youth Auction, scheduled for Sunday at 1 p.m. Designed to introduce the next generation to collecting, participants bid on coins, banknotes and other collectibles using play money, with guidance from experienced hobbyists.
With its blend of buying, selling, exhibiting and hands-on learning, the National Postage Stamp and Coin Show continues to serve as an important gathering point for Canada’s numismatic community.
