WORLD SERIES OF NUMISMATICS REVIVED 

   After a year's hiatus, the ANA's World Series of Numismatics 
   quiz game will return at the the annual convention in Atlanta, 
   GA, on August 10, 2001, according to ANA Education 
   Director Gail Baker.  In a change of pace, the game will move 
   away from the traditional Jeopardy -style format.  In a letter to 
   WSN fans, she writes: "Five contestants will compete 
   answering a general  numismatic question to qualify for a 
   question in their chosen area of expertise.  Each contestant 
   may choose a partner who may be called upon to help, much 
   like the life-line on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.   ... The 
   changes are designed to bring more fun, audience participation, 
   and chance into the game and the contestants no longer have 
   to be walking numismatic encyclopedias to compete."   For 
   more  information, contact Gail at education@money.org
