I'll be at the FUN Show every day, as I'm showing my first ever Exhibit. It's a five case Educational Exhibit about Indian Head cents, built around my "Unique" Registry Set! While my PCGS Registry Set has a current rank of #8, that's NOT what makes it unique. Hopefully everyone that sees the Exhibit can learn something interesting about IHC's they may not have known.Other than when I roam the Bourse Thursday morning through early afternoon, most of the rest of the time I'll be hanging out around my exhibit. Please stop by to say "Hi" and introduce yourself! While you're there, look at all of the exhibits, and make sure to vote for the exhibit you like best for "The Peoples Choice Award"!

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!
