Boston coin show

Does anybody know if there are still any coin shows in Boston. I know there used to be at least 1 every year back when I was actively collecting about 20 years ago. I can't seem to find anything, but I am not sure if that is because of Covid or not.

The Bay State show was the big show in Boston. It appears that it moved to Marlborough.

Check www.coinzip.com

The site has a pretty accurate list of shows throughout the country.

@ifthevamzarockin Thats close but not in Boston. There used to be a large coin show in Boston. I will check the link you sent.

@Oldhoopster thanks I guess I will have to drive further than before.

The location that the Bay State show is in and has been for a few years now is much better. While you do pay admission there is no parking fee so it’s actually much less expensive to come to the show. Plus much nicer space. It’s a good big show with many dealers and well worth the trip. Not far from Boston maybe 30
Minutes or so depending on traffic

@ScarsdaleCoin Are you going? I am shooting for Saturday and hoping it isn't like it used to be on Sundays when all the dealers split early.
