    I normally go but I moved 60 miles further away and just can’t do the round trip unless I have a specific purpose to attend. I do have some varieties that won’t slab with a # in pcgs but they will in anacs. But I think I will wait for a show a bit closer to home. I do like that show though. Top notch. My wife bought her first coin there a great looking hobo nickel.

    Too bad it wasn't in late August when I was staying in Tinley Park for a week. It is a nice location for a show with free parking.
    Have fun at the show!

    OK,
    My treasure finds!
    Well, my purchases, anyway.
    :D

    Roll of mixed silver Dimes.

    Checking for varieties.


    19x face

    2020W Samoa PCGS



    Couldn't go wrong for $20!
    Then,
    I found it!

    The GSA Soft Pack

    1880o
    Many Varieties to check!






    I figured, for only $168. Was too good to pass up.
    Only 3000 "Soft Packs" were ever minted!
    In ALL Denominations.
    Until Tomorrow...
    Thanks 😊

    Tinley Park was one of my favorite shows when I was still doing them. Steve and the team are top notch. I would encourage anyone to attend if possible. Excellent location, and you can’t beat Al’s beef for that Chicago specialty nearby.

    If you like Italian Beef Sandwiches there is a Pop's located just a short distance west of the convention center, south side of 183rd street by the hotels.

    Yes!
    Pop's, is my choice of ALL the beef sandwiches in Chicago!
    The BEST, in my opinion.
    Mmmmmmmmm

    Least a few were thrown in. Always good to pick up some classic coins.
