New Hampshire Coin & Currency Expo - 120 Tables - Manchester

I will be going Sat. to try to add to my 1909 certified RD Cent collection.

I went last year (my first coin show I attended). I ended up buying a few hundred on Barber's in VF for around spot.

A lot of nice dealers and a few that just bugged me.

Will do.

My summer season has started up - no more free weekends til September, alas.

I had a great time. Met my first CCF member (Matthewvincent). A very nice guy and seems to know his stuff. Wish we could of talked longer.

Will try to get pics up when I can. Myself, my father, and brother-in-law ended up spending between $600-$700 each. Will try to get some pics up if I have time.

I bought:
1955d Roosevelt to finish my silver Roosevelt set
1938d Walker
1944 Walker
1909 Lincoln Cent PCGS MS65RD
1912 $2.50 Gold Indian

Hey dumprat!

I am glad that you stopped by our table!
There is an underlying philosophy at the New Hampshire show: to encourage parents and children to collect together.
Well, when the three of you stopped by, I was taken by surprise. I did not think that parents and children
would continue a joint persuit into adulthood. It made me feel very good.

And that 1909 Red - WOW!

I just love your goal: to collect all six 1909 cents. Good Luck.

I may have shown you the Liberty "V" Nickel that I had bought. Later that afternoon, I also obtained from the same dealer
another. I now have both the 1912-S AND the 1886. Spent the equivalent of just over a grand in total, but despite
the abundance of examples at the show these two were miles above in condition and eye appeal.
Much like your 1909, I just could not leave it/them behind.

And finally, let us both hope that our meeting encourages others to do the same.
Meeting on the Internet is fine, but being able to put a face on a post, well,
that somehow is important to me.

Good Hunting!
Are you all going again in September?

Here is the 1912-S.
Only a VF-20.

Together at last!

All 33 plus a Racketeer Nickel for the historical angle.
