There are lots of hotels in the area. Cheap all depends on your budget. Check out priceline.com or hotels.ca. This would be a GREAT show for you to attend. The show gets better and better every year, and this year is no exception with the inclusion of some education symposiums. As far as grading booths, I don't think any of the grading companies will have a booth there, But there will be plenty of dealers who will gladly help you identify your coins for you. This will be well worth your trip I CANT WAIT!!  |

I remember Mike before he got famous... he drank rum, smoked like a chimney, and cursed like a sailor....  I think this will be an awesome seminar. I really hope it draws out some of the newspaper folks, because it needs to get beyond our numismatic circles, before it catches the attention of someone important to do something about it...
