Heyyy... I got a couple friends down there! Some premium Capped Bust Half Dimes gurus, in fact. So, I guess I'll be with you in spirit (but my body will be in Kansas).

Who are they? I probably talk to them several times a year.

I'm from Knoxville originally.
When I was a kid, I used to attend the April coin show at the Kerbela Shriner's building off E. Blount Ave. Of course that was back in the 1970-80's, but boy did I look forward to it. I'd bring my Whitman blue folders for cents and nickels and split hairs trying to find the best deal for the highest grade. Even as a kid I loved haggling.
I remember going to a couple of shows, with my dad, at the Kerbela building around 1973-4. I purchased some currency from Paul Garland which I still have.
Around 1978 there was a currency guy at the show who traded me a 1934 $20 note for a 1950 $5 note that I found in circulation. He told me currency would be the next big collectable and to hang on the the $20 note. I'm not sure his prediction was accurate, but I always appreciated his generosity and the time he took to speak with a kid. I'm wondering if it was this same guy (Paul Garland).
Fond memories of the shows at the Kerbela Temple. Saw many coins that I wish
I could've bought. The Redfield hoard was breaking at the time. I miss those days.
