Hi guys,
Well, what an adventure! First the facility is breathtaking.
What pizzazz and flair! Makes me proud to live in Chicago. Check out just a few pictures and areas.












Oh, my favorite beverage! Sorry. Lol

Back to the show and coins.
My fumbling on two, not-so-great choices, then my exciting rebound of an original classic, set in the right holder!



The people and collectors are the best! The dealers, as well as, the people. Great conversations and fun!
Some of these guys at the tables are real great people with real hearts! Love all the comoradadie.
Great deals to be made, as well. To me, the tables seem to be more giving and generous in our offers?
Maybe it's just me? Lol.
Anyway, I'm contemplating going back tomorrow but we'll see? Oh, I love the fact I finally got to meet in person one of my favorite Youtubers too. Adam, from the Q & A panel stream team! What a great guy. He even bought some of my CRHunted "W" Quarters! What a guy? Lol
Thanks guys for reading my report.
Also, thank all of you guys on the forum for all your suggestions and advice. Whether it was harsh or not.
Thank You! Please come back soon.
To my hometown, Chicago. Next big show here will be in August.

The great ANA Show in Rosemont

See ya later...

Me, leaving! Bye, Bye

    Pretty venue. At least some of your taxes aren’t going to State employees’ retirement.

    Great show report @joeykoins. Really enjoyed it.

    However, do you realize that you could have purchased a Standing Liberty quarter in VG for the price you paid for that Starbucks venti cappucchino?

    My money will never go to Rosemont ever again, the Stevens family are a bunch of crooks.

    This is why I like the CSNS at Schaumburg. :)

    @joeykoins.... Great pictures (though population was sparse - must have been early or late). Nice coin as well. Cheers, RickO

    Sparse?? I think you meant empty, I don't see anyone or any hint that there's a coin show going on.
