I'm looking forward to the Fall PNNA show October 6-8.
I see on the dealer list @Lakesammman will be there.
I'm hoping @2windy2fish sets up.
Who else has a table(s) or is planning on stopping by?
It's always fun meeting up with forum folk.

    Just heard about this from someone on MyCollect. Sounds like a great show. Doesn't work this year but maybe a retirement road trip in the future.

    Great show. I'll venture down to Tukwila for a few hours, either Fri of Sat. Not really looking for anything in particular, but who knows.

    @coinbuf @airplanenut and @Kove that's really great.

    RickO absolutely loved this show, as well as the nearby annual Boeing show. Knowing that he lived in the Pacific NW years ago, I’d always post lots of show pics for him. He was always so appreciative, and usually replied within a nanosecond. Miss you RickO.

    Looking forward to chatting with folks at the show!

    Will be bringing an eclectic mix of stuff , as usual, to include PCGS samples, Dan Carr tokens, real coins, etc.

    Please be sure to stop and say hello. I probably won't be shaking hands after getting Covid at the LB show ...... :D

    Nice show today (Sat). There were a few empty tables, but overall a better than average PNNA show.

    I was able to pic up my first Proof Barber quarter. Sorry about the lousy pics, but it’s really nice for a PF64 CAC. Nicely mirrored fields with copper/gold toning. I’m not really a proof guy, but this one screamed ‘take me home’.

    Anybody else pic up something fun?

    I went on Friday, as I’ve got a family trip up to Seattle for the week. Brought a box of coins to walk the floor with, and some samples for @Lakesammman . Hung out with him and @Bochiman at their table talking story for a good little bit. It was excellent to meet them in person! On Lakes advice, I visited @2windy2fish but didn’t introduce myself as a forum member. I likely should have. Bounced around the floor, talked with @ThePennyLady, sold some coins a few tables down, and generally had a good time. Slid back through Lake’s table to find @airplanenut being largely insulted by the denizens thereof. Seemed like good sport, so I needlessly piled on! A great conversation ensued, and all were happy. Heck, @airplanenut even gave me a lift to the Link station, a great load off my mind! Thanks again dude!

    I didn’t see that much buying and selling happening, but likely missed it. When I offered coins, even at sheet, most folks politely demurred, saying they spent their cash earlier (perhaps dealer to dealer was big??). I did see lots of folks looking through folders of raw coins. I inquired about generic gold, and most dealers were at least $100-150 over wholesale. I didn’t see much silver moving. I did sell about 8/23 coins, so it wasn’t a total bust, but the three rattlers I thought would move were kicked around a bunch, but not bit on.

    Anyway, great to see some forum friends, and gives me some thoughts on doing the show next year…!

    Cheers,
