The Westford Coin Show is quite large for a suburban show (86 tables) and is always well attended. Lots of US dealers. Morgans galore. All price ranges of coins. You might find a few good colonial coins and some world coins. James Johnston has a good selection of world coins and will negotiate on price. There is always an dealer in ancients named Yuliy who has some good deals. Also a dealer with a table in the hall selling common coin books and supplies. You might see some stamps, but they are definitely not the focus. Also some satcheleers circulate around which you can get some good deals from too. Kimball Farms ice cream is just down the street from the show on Rt 110 (aka Littleton Rd. - just drive south toward Littleton). SUNDAY NOVEMBER 25th 9am - 3pm WESTFORD REGENCY INN & CONFERENCE CENTER 219 Littleton Road (I-495, exit 32) Westford, Massachusetts $1 ADMISSION FEE Free parking - sometimes tough to get a spot in the front so drive around back behind the hotel. The Westford Regency is a nice upscale suburban hotel, but coin show is casual dress (jeans). Edited by t360 11/18/2007 9:39 pm

hmphh, I think I'll actually be back in town for this. Maybe I'll have to check it out since it's pretty close to my house. How early or late do you plan on being there. It would be nice to meet since we missed each other at the last show......

I will be there in the later morning - maybe ~10:30. I have to see off my brother-in-law and his family who have been visiting for the holidays and are heading back to Delaware Sunday morning. I posted some recent pictures of myself in the picture the poster thread and my profile. I am a tall guy with just a little tiny hint of grey (  ) in my bushy hair.

I'm sorry I didn't get there until almost noon. I didn't feel it would be very polite to push our company out the door.
tights24, I looked for a Happy Valley baseball cap but didn't see you! Sorry I missed you again! Hope you found something for your collection!
I came home with a old Swedish medal I bought from James Johnston.

Excellent suggestion Bobby and actually one I thought about while I was there. A CCF t-shirt or hat would be perfect for coin shows. Advertisement and an easy way to find other members! I came home with nothing except a newer and bigger holder for 2X2's. I was very close to some really nice V nickels, but I didn't pull the trigger. I apologize as well T360. I got there a little late and forgot about all of the work I had to do. I think I left right at 11:45.... Oh well, we'll meet at one of these things.

Order placed, I will have a incredibly cool  CCF button on next time. Should be warmer than wearing a toga.

Hey tights24 & t360,
I got there about 10:30 and left at 1:30. I just saw this post or I would have been more than HAPPY to hook up with Guys.
NOT sure about going to the Dec 23 show being so close to Xmas, but you never know.
We'll have to get together at one of the shows in the future.
Anybody going to the Show in Boston this coming weekend?
