In the early 80's and the 90's the Long Beach show was the best show I ever attended .
And I have been to LB SINCE 1964 , over two dozen WFOM shows, FUN shows ( another great show)
Half dozen mid year ANA shows. And hundreds of local shows.
At this last long Beach show I ran into an old time Dealer named Art Garnet ,some may remember him.
We both agreed the old Long Beach shows were great. I remember even today the size and the high hum and buzz on the Bourse!
Y’all better come to the Nashville show (see what I did with the y’all?). The convention center is only a couple years old and right in the middle of 100 restaurants and 2 blocks away from a ton of free live music. Many nice hotels right there also. It’s such a great place for a show. I hope it catches on.
I am pretty sure I will be teaching a two day Fundamentals of Grading class in Pittsburgh just before the ANA WFM. If you are going to the show and have yet to take a grading class, it may be beneficial. I'll be easy to spot in Pittsburgh, I will be the one wearing a Ravens t-shirt

I will be at the Baltimore and Pittsburgh shows...
I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.

ANA take a listen from last post Nashville might be an alternative to Chicago rosemont.
Like Long Beach the best
