Amazing, that place is HUGE compared to OZ
I wish I could have been there so jealous
So cool you have banners on the roof and everything, and the free stuff for kids is soooooooooo cute.
Everything is so well set out and presented, nice light open space too.
Ahh I could have been lost in there for days and been happy

Actually, the open space was only for the last day. Among the many things that we learned is that a corner booth alone is just too small. We have reserved a corner booth plus an adjacent single booth for F.U.N.I hope we see more of you there. We're hoping that this is just the beginning to doing a show approximately every six months. With any luck, maybe we will even find a way to do one "across the pond" one day!  |

Great pictures bobby & nohope. Thank you all for sharing. It's great to see youngsters taking an interest in our beloved hobby. Side note, that young lad looks to have a triplet in his hand and cherry picking some Morgan VAMs?  |

Thanks for sharing the photos, glad to see you had a successful (and I'm sure a bit stressfull at times) and were able to give to so many in attendance. Great job with the the kids stuff, for without them this hobby has no future, or at least a pretty bleak one. I hope you got a chance to peruse all the great exhibits behind you. I see very few YN's tried their hand in the catagories. Every youth exhibit only had first place, no other entries for second and third place in ANY catagory. http://www.worldsfairofmoney.com/la...-awards.aspxWhich means everyone of you YN's here at CCF could have had a 50% chance at first prize or at least a second. Exhibiting is a great way to share your own taste of the hobby, more need to start doing them, I've learned a lot by always checking them out at any convention they are displayed at, and the ANA is always #1 when it comes to great exhibits and exhibtors in the collectors showcase.

That's a really nice table--and great to see kid's interest--I'm sure the coins found nice homes! |

That little boy with his dad was a prodigy.
There was one point where I turned to SsuperDdave and just said, "Are you getting this?!"
His knowledge of coins and more specifically the history of a particular coin, was mind boggling. 9 years old if I recall.
I took a few pictures but nothing like Richards ;-)
I'll let them speak for the show.
