    Two... the February Long Beach CA Coin show just before the pandemic hit..... and the 2020 So-Called Gathering in Reno NV where SCDs were bought and sold. I'm DYING for to attend a show in 2021... at the moment I'm awaiting the Rosemont Chicago IL ANA show in Aug 2020 ... already booked the room.....

    BTW I just had the COVID-19 vaccine shot last night at 6pm.... other than a sore arm, I'm doing fine. I did not turn into a "walking dead" zombie.... same as getting the flu shot.... easy.....

    If I recall, it was 3. All local. Good story about one of them. Early in the year I went to this one local show,about 10 miles from my home. Tinley Park show, in Tinley Park, IL. Found this one raw Washington quarter in a 2x2 flip, for only $3. I loved the strike and appearance. As well as, the price. It was the 1965 business strike. Later that week, I loved it so much I sent it in. Hoping to get a 67. $400 listed in the guide. Anyway, since than I did receive it already. It just missed the 67. It came back a ms 66.
    So, concerning the show. At the same place months later. I went back and found the guy I brought it off of. I explained to him that I bought a raw coin from him earlier in the year. He remembers me. I told him I sent the raw coin in to PCGS. Told him What I got. He was shocked, not angry just puzzled that he didn't notice the coin being that nice! He congratulated me. We were laughing about it for an hour. Nice guy. Nice show. Lol.

    Here is the quarter
