The highest honor within the Diablo Numismatic Society is the Fellow of the Society award.
The Fellow of the Society is awarded to members who have supported the club and the greater numismatic community in a sustained and superior manner over an extended period of time. The recipient must serve in multiple elected club positions for at least five years, attend meetings regularly, and have a record of service to the hobby at large.
Any club member may nominate a candidate. Nominations are accepted in September. The board of directors vote on any / all nominations the following January and the decision must be unanimous. There can only be one recipient each calendar year. Award winners are deemed Life Members of the Diablo Numismatic Society.
