Have a great time - wish I could be there. Maybe you can add a few photos of your exhibit for us after the show if possible.

Excellent!  The FUN show is on my bucket list. I was supposed to go several years back, but those plans fell through.

All the best at the show WS! 
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Thank you to everyone above. I'll post some photos after the show. However, I've been taking photos as I've played with various layouts, and they always come out "distorted". Additionally, you really can't see the coins well in the photos, so at that time I'll post a hotlink to my Registry set, where one can then see three or four excellent photos of each coin. Also in the photos of each of the five cases, the text is tough to read unless you expand/enlarge the photos.

I was thinking exactly how the coins wouldn't be all that viewable, but as I've studied your registry sets and the coins are photographed there very nicely by Phil at PCGS - I was most interested in the whole displays and surrounding exhibits. Just an overall view of the exhibit area and the cases to give us an idea of how it looks, Love your coins by the way, I've spent a good hour looking them over in the past, and the fact you got them all CAC approved is another feather in the cap!

I thought I'd bump this thread up to the top again with new photos from Charmy Harker AKA "The Penny Lady" lots of pics of the exhibit Winesteven built and some photos of the Blay collection of amazing Red Copper Cents selling tonight at Great Collections. Really some great photos in here. https://thepennylady.com/charmys-co...how-reports/

Thanks. I'm still waiting to see if the video taken of my exhibit will be posted on YouTube. I believe it will be once he has time.
