Donuts and coffee are what we all run on! Can't ever refuse such a kind gesture!

And in case anyone is wondering, both of us are young numismats, I am 23, been collecting for around 6-8 years and love g5-6 nickels. I also collect a large variety of other items, and will buy or sell anything at the right price! Feel free to drop by our table and get a CCF discount, or just to shoot the breeze! We are both easy going, and love a little show and tell!

as Kevin mentioned, I am also a young numismatist, at 17 years of age this will be a big deal for me I hope I can help people add to their collection as well as potentially add to my own.

Saw some old friends in Brampton, as well as Dollarman & Apitrix. Saw Jim and PaulGlover and Jayden. Unfortunately, not a single coin found for my hours drive.

Back from the Brampton Show.
Wasn't hard to spot Bill in his canary yellow shirt.
Compliments to both Will and Kevin (aka Dollarman & Apritix)
on their first show. Looked like they had been doing it for years.
Picked up some variety 50c pieces that I didn't have including a 1958 Dot.
Not a bad way to pass some time.

Couldn't make the show, but glad the YN's had a good show. Congrat's Dollarman and Apritix.
Okiecoiner- sorry to hear you were skunked. But to quote Motorhead "you know the chase, is better than the catch", said in the Lemmy growl of course.

I've had, at any one time, well over 8,000 Vicky large cents .. 1,000 of those 59's. I really don't look for much any more .. just a couple that I look for that I've only seen once or twice in over 30 years. Expo's coming .. maybe better luck there.

Okiecoiner: Good to see you again Bill.... that orange shirt is hard to miss.
JimmyD.... Not too much in the way of George VI varieties, but there were a couple of new dealers with some stuff that I hadn't seen before....if I'd known you were there, I might have been able to steer you to some George VI varieties.......

sorry to hear you didn't find anything okie, I really hope you have better luck at the coin expo later this month!

thank you so much for the kind words Jimmy! it was great talking to you again. and I'm glad you found some things at the show! it was a real honor having you choose some of our items for your grand kids, I sure hope they like what you got them.

thanks loonielewy

no Roger, he didn't..it's all good though! getting to talk to him again was much better than any sweets..and that goes for all the other forum members I got to talk to today

i didn't sell a whole lot..but I did make some decent money through a couple sales as my profit margins were comfortable compared to what I had paid for the items..but all in all it was an amazing show..really cool to be behind the table, especially with Kevin and his very sweet and helpful girlfriend.
i believe I'm addicted to being a dealer now! so much fun especially as I was able to alternate from being behind the table to walking the floor.

i spent more than I made though I left the show with a beautiful SP-64 1952 dime, a 1965 Lg Beads, Blunt 5 dollar in PL-66 UHC, and a 1951 50 cent in PL66 along with a 1952 50 cent piece in PL65..this 1952 is quite amazing as there is only a population of 5 in all PL grades...quite rare compared to the 1951 issue with about 70 certified by ICCS alone!

thank you to Kevin aka Apitrix and his girlfriend for the great opportunity and experience I had today! it was amazing and I hope to do it again in the future!
Feel free to call me Will.

It was quite an experience for sure! Was very happy to attend and see lots of friendly faces! I will hopefully be dealing along side Doug (one of three of the previous BW Coins Owner) so if anyone will be attending the show, I will see you there! It was an honor to meet fellow members, and a great pleasure dealing side by side with Will. I believe we will be doing this coin show for the foreseeable future :)

All the best!
Kev

Although my stay was short, it was a fun show. Plenty of stuff I wish I could buy. Thanks again for the coins Will and Kevin!

Sounds like the future of the hobby is in good hands.
