So today I attended my first coin show. CCF member and fellow 'pegger ikandiggit pointed it out to me so I thought I'd check 'er out.
Met a few interesting people that many of you probably know such as Dave and Berry ( or as you know him ikandiggit ).

I would like to thank dave for the pennies :) filled in a nice gap in my collection

1936
1935
1934
1933
1932
1929
1928
1921
1920

all for $1.75!! I couldn't go wrong :)

also obtained a nice Winnipeg Centennial dollar, expired in the same year it was made and was only good for use in winnipeg but considering this is were I was born and raised I had to have it..and priced at $1 I couldnt go wrong :)

spent a grand total of $2.75 on 10 coins, met some people and showed the baby around ( trying to start him really early ) and all in all I think it was a good time. Can't wait for the next one!

I was great to meet you and your little guy (cute little fella!). I'm glad you found something you were looking for. Hope to see you at the next show (second Sunday of the month).

Is there a show schedule for the shows?

I've been collecting for about a year (first time posting here). I went to the two advertised shows I could find in the Winnipeg area, in the spring and in the last year, but always suspected there are shows more often but could never find any info.
