Good point, Condor. That's why I want to see the reverse, see if it lists the mass and fineness. Love how some of the silver coins from the Spanish speaking world list that kind of stuff.

I'm just shocked that baseball cards shows even exist still. There is hope for anything now! :D

If you knew this show 10 15 years ago, you would wonder how and why it still goes on.
Back then they had hundreds of tables throughout several shopping malls from week to week.
Now there only in one mall (and that mall is half empty) and only have, maybe, a dozen dealers.
I live not far from Philadelphia, and there are several shows throughout the year that are worth checking out for the education alone.

Beanie Babies still trade too... there is a couple that sets up several times a year in Westfield Capitol Mall (Olympia, WA) with a couple of tables. Kids buy them because they're cute and a novelty. But no where near the prices that were predicted in the height-of-the-boom time guides. Like $10 not $10K.

WOW...$10 for beanies?
Can I come sell beanies near you?
I guess travel expenses would outweigh though, as I am near Philadelphia.
Around here they get anywhere from a buck each to 3.00 each (at best)
I bought them way back when and gave them to my dog, she loved playing with them. Those beans on the floor made one heck of a racket in the vacuum.
