I have not been to any major coin show since co-vid cursed us. This weekend I finally got to a real show.(80 +dealers) The show was very crowded and the aisles were too narrow to begin with. Dealer tables were sold out and about 20 tables for dealers where in the halls. The dealers, about 90 % were unknown to me and the vast majority of them were mostly bullion dealers. There was a nice selection of US coins and even some good looking ancients. I guess the times have changed a lot in the last three years but the shows still look profitable.

There are two local shows in my area held in February and October. I last attended a show just a month before the lock-downs started. I finally attended both last year for the first since then. I did not notice anything different about size or attendance. A few dealers I had been used to seeing were not present, but they were replaced by new ones. No empty tables that I could see. I had feared the shows being taken over by bullion traders, but they remain first and foremost coin shows.
