Look at who I saw at the Pittsburgh Marriott. He was in town for the coin show.

I was eager for the ribbon cutting.


My new IHC that I bought from Rick Snow of Eagle Eye. A shoutout to @Insider2 who had steered me away from an earlier specimen that a different dealer was selling. It had a speck of green crud on the reverse. My new coin was also several thousand dollars less!


I bought this historical brass specimen at the Kagin’s auction. Paid cash to avoid the 2.9% add on to the 20% buyers fee. Always liked the Humbert slug but it is too expensive for me.





My 2 buddies also went to a nearby museum where we saw a meteorite, robots and a great model train layout.
The turnout seemed good but less than the August show. We enjoyed Pittsburgh and it seemed like the city is doing well. They have a subway that provides 3 free stops. It runs from downtown to PNC park and the nearby museum and casino.
