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.

Which 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.

Originally I had planned on being there, but issues came up that interfered

It looks like you had a great time and I am so glad the kids were made happy!

Great job to those who participated - and thanks for posting pics.

Great pics everyone. I'm really kicking myself for not making it. Hopefully next time I can be there.

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.
