So, here we are, in Philadelphia. Just getting set up, Day One. We're not quite there yet, but here's the first pic. In this image are Bobby, Susan, vermontensium and nohope587. You decide who's whom.

Nice, keep the pics coming. As far as who's who, I think you know who you are.

The neat thing about a show this large? You get to see stuff like this:   Upcoming - a full set of Stellas (the only complete set in existence), and a 1913 Liberty nickel once I figure out how to shoot it through tilted glass.

I really like the Slab Holder the Half Dime is in! The coin is pretty snazzy too!  It's a good thing thrat the 1803 Dollar is in a slab I really wish that I could be there with you guys!  Where is the BIG SHOW going to be next year? A little closer to the Heartland?

Next year it moves back to Chicago and will be there for the next three years I believe. Quote: Upcoming - a full set of Stellas (the only complete set in existence) Really the only full set? I know there have been several full sets put together over the years and several complete sets existed at the same time. Or maybe this set also includes the off-metal pieces as well.

Well, looks like the calm before the storm! Is the floor concrete? [Hard on the feet and legs.] Did anyone bring a Breen's catalog? If so, I would like to have the person do a little bit of research for me. Does not have to be done during the show. It can wait. Lastly, how can we members forced by distance to remain put serve the goal of the CCF presence to help out the kids? Am ready to answer questions from the "newly addicted!

I'm red-green color blind, oih82w8. 1 in 100 males are. But only 1 in 10,000 females. Makes it difficult to see rainbow toning.

I used to sell clothes before I spent 24 years in the Air Force, they used to call me the "King of Clash"!
