Gerry Fortin mentioned this new show in his Blog. Anyone have any information?

Edited to add Gerry comment:
"Finally, I'm very pleased to announce that GFRC will be attending a new start-up Sarasota coin show that takes place from February 28 through March 2. GFRC was able to secure an awesome table location next to the front entrance thanks to the connection made by Dan White."

    Wouldn’t this be the same Sarasota show that always occurs within a couple weeks of the collectorama show in Lakeland?

    There has been a late winter, multi day show in Sarasota for quite a while. I had a table there a number of times 17 or 28 years ago.

    Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    I heard about this for the first time in Gerry’s blog as well. It’s local to me, so I will definitely check it out.

    Nothing is as expensive as free money.

    Update from Gerry's blog:
    "I would also like to announce that GFRC is adding a start-up coin show to its 2024 schedule. The Sarasota Florida Coin Club is launching a new three day show that takes place from February 28 through March 2. The show will be held at the Sahib Shriner's Temple in Sarasota with incredible amenities for a smaller sized coin show. A full restaurant will be on site serving breakfast and lunch. The Tiki Bar will also be opened including nightly Happy Hour. There is plenty of free parking too. Since Dan White is well connected to the Sarasota Coin Club, GFRC has been able to secure one of the best table locations on the bourse. We will be located immediately left of the entrance with a full corner plus sized booth."

    Look forward to hearing some reports. Too far away for me, unfortunately

    Sounds like it might be a good show but is too far for me.

    Coincides exactly with the pcgs member’s show in Philadelphia

    Philly or Gulf Coast Florida in February…hmm, tough choice!
