Welcome to the 2014 Show!
(Excerpt from the Program)

East meets West at this year’s East Coast Gem, Mineral and Fossil Show. Nine dedicated mineral collectors from California have cooperated to provide some of the finest specimens from their personal collections for your viewing pleasure. Displays here include Gold, California’s state mineral, and Benitoite, California’s 
state gemstone. Many of the wonderful minerals found in California occur as gem crystals: Tourmaline, kunzite, garnet, topaz, aquamarine, and more. Other displays feature colorful worldwide specimens sized from thumbnails to large cabinet specimens. One collector even produces a line of mineral-themed wines, complete with artistic mineral labels created by Massachusetts artist Fred Wilda.

We hope you will take the time to explore and enjoy the hundreds of fine mineral specimens that have traveled across the US to appear in your own “back yard.” The East Coast Gem, Mineral & Fossil Show has achieved a position as one of the most important natural history events in the eastern U.S. We thank our visitors, dealers and exhibitors for their special interest and dedicated efforts that have enabled us to reach this status. Enjoy the show!
