I'm pondering a one day visit to this show in June. It's been at least 4 or 5 years since I've made this one. Always liked this show.
In your opinion, which would be the best day to attend? I'm not really interested in any of the auctions, talks, etc. I'm more interested in the best bourse situation. I assume it would not be the last day (Saturday), as dealers will likely be bugging out early.
Thanks for your thoughts.

Always looking for original, better date VF20-VF35 Barber quarters and halves, and a quality beer.

I'm usually there on Friday. And the refrain I hear from most of the dealers is: "It was busier yesterday".
So, if you want easy access to tables: Friday.
If you want to see the "buzz", and get first crack: Thursday.
And, you are right, Saturday is usually a disappointment. By noon, it looks like moving day at any small college.
Best: Thursday (not counting Set Up Wednesday for dealers)
Next: Friday
Next: Sept.

Thanks for the advice. Well...since I couldn't decide, I decided to go both Thurs and Friday. Hoping to see some fresh Barber material!
The show is just a little over 3 weeks away. Next question...WHO'S GOING???

Agreed, best is Thursday but I can’t go until Saturday and it’s also pretty quiet on Sat. See everyone there!
Always buying nice toned coins! Searching for a low grade 1873 Arrows DDO Dime and 1842-O Small Date Quarter.
Hope to see several reports of this usually great coin show.... Check for bullion movement, hot mint sets and other activity that comes to attention....Cheers, RickO

I’ll be there Thursday.
Will be there at table 448 the entire show.
Usually PCGS sends an invitation to the registry members that includes free early bird admission on Wednesday during set up. Might want to keep an eye out for that if that interests you. Otherwise, Thursday or Friday will be fine. You won't like Saturday.

I plan to go Thursday -- mostly because I'd rather avoid Friday traffic.
Successful BST transactions with forum members thebigeng, SPalladino, Zoidmeister, coin22lover, coinsarefun, jwitten, CommemKing.
Just a week left until the show... anyone else going to join us?

I guess I will join you mainly to keep an eye on you from table 549.
I'll be there on Thursday

I'll be there at my regular table, #633, with a few cases of mint error coins. Looking forward to it!
Only 4 days away! Can’t wait!
Dave
Will try to make it Thursday.

I'm taking advantage of the PCGS offer for an early pass for registry set members, so I will there Wednesday and Friday as well. See you all at the show!
My table # 833 -- I'll have my mint errors and a few
other interesting items as well.
