I ventured up to the DFW area, and took my father to the White Settlement coin show. Saw a few dealers from my Houston shows that I knew, and picked up 5 upgrades for my Walking Liberty half set. I bit the bullet and chose a double eagle, my have the prices gone up. I'll post pictures of my W.L. upgrades later.

Congrats!

That's a beautiful big hunk o' gold coin you now proudly own.

I'm in North Texas but only usually go to TNA show every year. I might have to start going to some of these smaller shows.

Nice looking piece you picked up there!

Haven't been up to the white settlement show yet, but always see it on the list. I never miss a show in San Antonio, but sadly not as great as some of the Houston shows.

Always nice to pick up a double eagle! I was at that same show. Picked up a few goodies myself, but my main goal was to do a bunch of submissions to ANACS.

For those of you who live nearby and attend this show, I believe I saw an article online that mentioned that the Chik-fil-A there is maybe the only one in the country that is, from what I understand, fully automated. If you go through the drive through, there's a conveyor that pops out at the window to give you your order. Kinda weird, so I meant to check it out this time but forgot. Maybe next time!
