Small world. Coins and coincidences....

HallcoHallco Posts: 3,723 ✭✭✭✭✭

I mentioned on another thread recently that I haven't collected coins for almost a decade. I recently decided to come back to the forum(coin side). I wanted to see if there are any shows upcoming anywhere near me and found one that is happening in August. I wanted to see the dealers who are planning to set up to see if I had previously done business with. I was completely shocked to see that a coin dealer from my small home town where I grew up as a child (over 700 miles away from where I live now and most people have never heard of), is scheduled to be there! :o I sent him an email and am hoping we can meet. How strange and fantastic it might be if we actually know some of the same people!! Thank you coins! :D

    Coins bring people together from great distances at major shows. I once ran into a gal I went to high school with 45 years prior.... She was living one state away on the west coast. Cheers, RickO
