Looking forward to seeing what goodies you get this year! Me too! To be honest, though, I'm anticipating it to be a bit of a bust for me. I'm specifically looking for a couple of higher-end items that I could purchase right now on ebay or APMEX, but I have no idea if anybody will have them for sale at the show. If I can't find them at the show, though, I'll go ahead and purchase them online instead. It's just that I prefer to buy them in person, and I'll take any excuse to wander around for a few hours looking at coins and notes... |

I could have already bought one or all of the last three online, but I really want to find the right fit at the coin show. And my last two coin shows were more about looking than buying.  |

Not going to coin shows any longer. And certainly not paying $10 + gas.

Hey, Ed! I posted two separate threads to talk about what I picked up. One's in the classic coins forum and the other is in the paper money forum.
In short, I traded in a bunch of junk silver for two really nice coins and then used my regularly budgeted funds to buy a bunch of notes. So a great show overall!
