    Be there soon.

    Hope maintenance looked at that plane good during the turn. Pretty good burn hole on the radome from a lightning strike. Looks like it needs a tap test and tape for sure.

    Thanks for the overview and photos. What was the product for cleaning coins supposedly safely being offered in your photo 7 please?

    It is basically a Bissell Steam Shot.

    How hot does the coin actually get? Steam is created when water is heated to temperatures above 212F.

    I asked him what about any dust or other small environmental items on the coin? How can you steam it without leaving hairlines or other damage. His answer was not clear to me but he used a dirt Kennedy and it didn't show any signs after. It runs just under 60 bucks to buy. May be a nice tool to have in a shop. He said just add water. No need for distilled etc. while I didn't buy it, it might be a nice to have for those who have a lot of old coins they want to STEAM. It also does household cleaning like air vent etc.

    Cheers,
    Kathy

    Sorry I’m all about the hot sauce lately or at least for those steel pennies with white coating that makes the coin unreadable. Forgot a before but here is after.

    Ok here is a selfie with Jay Rudo

    I've seen several show reports over the years and I like the way you did it. Cliff Mishler published some good ones in the "old" days featuring just the people he met. Pictures are better when you cannot be there.

    PS Will ANY forum member here who has NEVER picked their nose care to lie about it?! Please edit those low class-postings I just flagged. That's probably someone's wife or girlfriend.

    Steamer just water heat at 110 to avoid changing color or toning

    Jewelers use pressurized steam to clean things. Heat speed reactions so watch out and experiment first.

    Those flyers and Indians were friggin' amazing. So old and beautiful and in such a high grade. Who would have thought it possible. I'd probably have to take out a second mortgage to afford something like that. Thanks for sharing KK.

    It was tough getting all the pics without glare from display case so I did my best to give you at least a peek of a picture to see.

    Not to worry, Kathy, it is very hard to see coins in slabs and in a display case when at a show. You captured the moment for those of us that could not be at the show. Your report was about the coins and the collectors which was quite novel.... :)
    No restaurant and wine reviews, but Lucy probably appreciated that.
