You are overthinking this. No coin show has the time or processing power to do anything with this data.


@Fortcollins might disagree with you... see here:

a video record of you with your ID and audio of your name verification that makes it possible to match your image and ID on the show camera with your image on other cameras


Worth noting that all of these cameras are digital, most use digital cloud service storage, and most, if not all cloud services are regularly scanned by the operators (Google, ASW, Apple, etc) as well as gov't agencies. This is not tinfoil hat nonsense, digital recording with facial recognition is common practice for the tech world. It's how they make their money. I could go on and on, but you get the point...

making sure you had something with a name & photo, and that was it. Quick look and on your way. Nothing was recorded.


Then what is the point of asking for ID? We call ths security theater.

Anyway, none of this matter. I said this on Page 1 a couple months ago:

I don't care why any coin show wants to see my ID, they're not getting it.

If a shows wants my ID, I'm not going. No hard feelings,. It's a private party and I'm not invited.

I just like to know aforehand.
