July 2004


To our valued shareholders:


The fiscal year ended May 31, 2004 The American Heritage Fund had a total return of approximately 83%. During the same period, the approximate total returns of the S&P 500 Index and the OTC Market were 17% and 25%, respectively.


We achieved our results with a portfolio turnover rate almost 570%. In our prior fiscal year the turnover rate was zero and we experienced our worst performance over the past five years. This seems to contradict the often held view, that a high turnover rate is detrimental to the performance of a fund.


While certainly not unhappy about the performance, I do not intend to rest on these short lived laurels. I believe that there is still a lot of ground to recover. Today, the Fund is much more diversified than in previous years. At the end of July 2004, the portfolio consisted of 36 stocks in addition to a basket of 23 micro cap stocks, which are traded as a group either on the long or short side. The top ten holdings make up approximately 57% of the portfolio.


Since the beginning of the calendar year The American Heritage Fund’s performance is first in the growth category of mutual funds, which consists of over 4,200 funds. Past performance is obviously no guarantee for the future. The expense ratio, although high in comparison to the industry, has been kept to last year's level.


The bull market, which started in the U.S. in October 2002 and in Europe and Asia in the spring of 2003, has taken a breather since March of this year. Based on historical data, I believe that it is very unlikely that the rest of the year will continue the nerve-wracking sideways movement.


The U.S. economy has been in a recovery mood since the fourth quarter of 2001. The growth rate should come in fairly close to the 4% level in the second half of this year. Corporate earnings, already at a record high, will continue to improve. Even though the Federal Reserve will increase the FED Funds Rate in several steps to the 2% level by year-end, I believe that this should not stop the bull market in stocks. Constant sector rotation does make trading a necessity.


Shareholders who would like our analysis of the stock market, the world economy and political trends can call 212-397-3900 to request a free copy of my monthly newsletter, which has been published since 1979.


Our strategy and investment outlook will be discussed two days after the presidential election in my next conference call on Thursday, 4th of November 2004 at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Those who want to participate should get in touch with our office on the day of the call for the toll free number.

Notes to Financial Statements

May 31, 2004




NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

The American Heritage Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.  The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.


Security valuations

The Fund values its securities, where market quotations are readily available, at market value based on the last recorded sales price as reported by the principal securities exchange on which the security is traded, or if the security is not traded on the exchange, market value is based on the latest bid price. Foreign securities are converted to U.S. dollars using exchange rates at the close of the trading day. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued as the Board of Directors or a committee composed of members of the Board of Directors as determined in good faith.


Federal income taxes

It is the Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders.


Option writing

When the Fund sells an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Fund on the expiration date as realized gains from the sales of securities. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, are also treated as a






THE AMERICAN HERITAGE FUND, INC.

Notes to Financial Statements

May 31, 2004




realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether the Fund has realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Fund.


Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.


Other

The Fund follows industry practice and records security transactions on the trade date. The specific identification method is used for determining gains or losses for financial statements and income tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis.


NOTE 2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND CERTAIN OTHER TRANSACTIONS


The Fund has an investment advisory agreement with American Heritage Management Corporation (AHMC), whereby AHMC is entitled to receive a fee of 1.25% of the Fund's first $100 million average net asset value and 1% of such value on any additional net assets, computed daily and payable monthly. During the year ended May 31, 2004, investment advisory fees aggregated $10,658.  AHMC agreed to waive these fees. The fund does not seek to recapture the fees waived.





THE AMERICAN HERITAGE FUND, INC.

Notes to Financial Statements

May 31, 2004




Heiko H. Thieme is the Fund's Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer and Secretary. Heiko H. Thieme is also the Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer and Secretary of AHMC, of which he owns 100% of the outstanding shares.  He is also the Chief Executive Officer and Principal shareholder of Thieme Securities, Inc.


The Fund heretofore agreed to reimburse AHMC for office space and administrative personnel utilized by the Fund.  For the year ended May 31, 2004, the Fund and AHMC have agreed that no reimbursements will be made and will not seek to recapture such fees.


NOTE 3. INVESTMENTS

For the year ended May 31, 2004, purchases and sales of investment securities other than short-term investments aggregated $4,262,100, $4,330,034.  All of these purchase and sale transactions were with Thieme Securities, Inc., a brokerage firm owned by Heiko H. Thieme.  Reference is made to Note 2 of the financial statements – Investment Advisory Agreement and Certain Other Transactions.  As of May 31, 2004, the gross unrealized appreciation for all securities totaled $63,898 and the gross unrealized depreciation for all securities totaled $5,333,566, or a net unrealized depreciation of $5,269,668. The aggregate cost of securities for federal income tax purposes at May 31, 2004, was $6,609,591. During the year ended May 31, 2004, the Fund paid no dividends nor did it have distributable earnings.


NOTE 4. RESTRICTED SECURITIES

Investments in restricted securities and investments, where market quotations are not available, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, or a committee composed of members of the Board of Directors of the Fund.


THE FUND MAY ACQUIRE PORTFOLIO SECURITIES CALLED RESTRICTED





THE AMERICAN HERITAGE FUND, INC.

Notes to Financial Statements

May 31, 2004




securities, which can be sold only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 or

an exemption from such registration. In addition, other securities held by the Fund may become illiquid which means they cannot be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business at approximately the quoted market value of such securities, or in the absence of such quoted market value, the price at which the fund has valued such securities. The Fund will not invest in restricted and other illiquid securities if, as a result of such investment, the value of the Fund's illiquid assets would exceed 15% of the value of the Fund's net assets.


Restricted securities eligible for resale under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 that have been determined to be liquid by the Fund's Board of Directors based upon trading markets for the securities and any other restricted securities that become registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or that may be otherwise freely sold without registration thereunder are not subject to the foregoing limitation, unless they are otherwise illiquid.


Certain securities held by the Fund, which were restricted at the time of their acquisition, have been deemed to no longer be restricted for financial statement presentation purposes in reliance upon the provisions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933.


The Fund normally will be able to purchase restricted securities at a substantial discount from the market value of similar unrestricted securities, but there are certain risks which the Fund will necessarily assume in acquiring restricted securities. The principal risk is that the Fund may have difficulty in disposing of such securities without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, and the Fund will have to bear the risk of market conditions prior to such registration. In the absence of an agreement obtained at the time of purchase of such securities, there can be no assurance that the issuer will register the restricted securities. Furthermore, if the Fund disposes of restricted securities without registration, it may be necessary to sell





THE AMERICAN HERITAGE FUND, INC.

Notes to Financial Statements

May 31, 2004




such shares at a discount similar to or greater than that at which the Fund purchased the shares.




NOTE 5. CAPITAL AND OPERATING LOSS CARRY FORWARDS

At May 31, 2004, the Fund had net capital loss carryforwards of approximately $16,472,000, expiring as follows 2005: $11,255,600, 2006: $354,000, 2007: $1,074,600, 2008: $463,400 and 2009: $3,324,600. The Fund has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $4,448,000, expiring in 2006 through 2024, for Federal Income tax purposes.


NOTE 6. REDEMPTIONS

The Fund reserves the right to make payments for shares redeemed in cash or in-kind.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT





Board of Directors and Shareholders

American Heritage Fund, Inc.

New York, NY



We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the American Heritage Fund, Inc., including the schedule of investments in securities, as of May 31, 2004, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended.  These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the fund’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and the financial highlights based on our audits.  The financial  highlights data for each of the two periods ended May 31, 2001 were audited by Larson, Allen, Weishair & Co., LLP whose auditors’ report, dated July 19, 2001, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.


We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights and related ratios/supplemental data are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of May 31, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian and the application of alternative auditing procedures for unsettled security transactions.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the financial statements and the financial highlights  referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the American Heritage Fund, Inc. as of May 31, 2004, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and  the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
