We are running this in our club newsletter, and it is probably appropriate to post here as well.
===================================================================
SeatedFest 2011
Fans of seated coinage will not want to miss the November Whitman Baltimore show, November 17-19 at the Baltimore Convention Center. The LSCC will be holding forth with a massive exhibition of seated coinage, featuring highlights from the following collections:
Half Dimes: MrHalfDime
Dimes: Gerry Fortin
Double Dimes: John Frost
Quarters: Selections from Classic Silver and the Chicago Collection
Half Dollars: Bill Bugert
Seated Dollars: MnS Joint Venture
Trade Dollars: Crypto79 Collection
We are planning for a fifteen case display, and no matter what you collect there should be something of interest. Apart from the coins, this is great opportunity to meet and network with other set builders. In our recollection, there has never been a similar exhibit of seated coinage, with the exception of auction lot viewings such as Eliasberg, Richmond, etc.
As usual, we will also meet as a club on Friday, the 18th, at 9am in Room 329. See the full show schedule at:

If I am interpreting your question correctly, I will tell you that I plan to be sitting behind the display cases, available to answer questions and discuss the half dime series with any interested collector. In addition to the 'one-of-each-date-and-mint' set that will be on display in the cases, I will also have with me numerous examples of most known (and a few previously unknown) varieties, including repunched dates, misplaced dates, rotated dies, some spectacular late die states with enormous die cracks and cuds, a few mint errors, plus some other interesting examples. Please feel free to spend some time, ask some questions, and look at some very interesting coins.

I was not planning on making this show but now I really must see if I can go, even if just a day trip. This is so very tempting.
