Just a month away! Looking forward to this. The one last Sept was a huge success, even though it took place during a monsoon in much of the area! The best part is that it is in Oaks, Pa (just outside of King of Prussia), is easy to get to and plenty of FREE parking! Who's going?
Sorry for the huge images. Just used drag and drop. Anybody know how to make the images not so big? Thanks!

I plan on attending
I should try this one out sometime. My old stomping grounds.
Hello all 👋
I’m Nick. I run the show. Feel free to contact me with any questions here or via our website www.phillycoinexpo.com
Looking forward to seeing you all there 😁
Will you accept a printout of the above card for free admission?
The twice-a-year Denver Coin Expo is on the same days.
There shouldn't be much competition between the two since they are so far apart (in distance).
Yes, a printout or screenshot of the above flyer will be accepted for admission 👍
I think I will check it out - Thanks!
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.
Do you know if PCGS will attend.
Although not a factor. Count me in.
New collector here . I haven't attended a show yet and was looking for something non-intimidating to start. Would this fit the bill? Thanks for any advice.
This would be an excellent show for a newcomer.
And FREE admission with the printout or screenshot of the above!
PCGS themselves will not be set up themselves but several PCGS approved dealers will be. I’m sure you can find a local dealer to help you out. Glad to have you!
See you there 😁
We’d love to have you! My motto for this show is “ it’s not your grandpas’ coin show “ we have a good group of dealers. A heavy social media presence, and try to keep the atmosphere fun. There will be hourly give aways, a 50/50 drawing, dealers play music at their tables. It’s a good time. (I might be a lil biased) 🤣
If you have instagram @phillycoinexpo
If not the website has some pics so you can get a feel
1oz 999 silver bars I hade made for door prizes
Do you have a dealer listing yet? I would love to know who will be there.

Sounds good, I think I'll ease on over.

I'll be there. Think we might be at a table, but I'll definitely be walking around either way. Looking forward to it, it's nice to have a decent, local show that isn't on the other side of Philly and is closer than Baltimore.

Should added to website this week
We have room for more dealers if needed I can make the arrangements
Great to hear!
I've felt so out of my league at local coin shows for a while now, unfortunately. I grew up on junk boxes, flea markets, Mom & Pop brick & mortars, and the like. Now so much of the shows/tables seem dedicated to slabbed silver & gold & other items out of my comfort zone. I don't blame vendors for not wanting to waste time carrying raw coins to fill holes in Whitman blue folders - - they have bills to pay.
Remember to print or save this on your phone for FREE admission!!!! Going to be a GREAT show!!
Are these just limited edition for the door prizes?
20 have been allocated for prizes
10 are in my personal stash 🤣
10 have been sold to other dealers
10 will be available for sale at my table
50 total? That is quite a limited edition! Should be some very happy prize winners!
@littlebear yes pa based company keystone stacking made them
Only 50 will ever be made
Next show will be a new design
😉(🥊 hint)
Any dates for the fall show, or is that too early?
A solid idea.
@littlebear not yet
I have a few events in the fall I have to juggle around 🤹♂️

Hello all
I did a YouTube interview yesterday with guardian security group. We discussed the show, bullion, (my specialty) and security. If you have the time and feel like checking it out I’ve included the link.
Awesome video. Will a list of dealers be posted in the near future?
Less than a week away!
Hello everyone
I just did another YouTube interview and wanted to share it with you
https://youtu.be/sZ5iyuICfIg?si=Uve3Zz0BuKQ-IduU
Thank you for explaining all the time, effort and preparation that goes into the making of this show. It is certainly no easy task. Looking forward to it!
Remember: FREE ADMISSION with picture of this card on your phone!
Can't beat the price-Free. Hope the show is well attended and everyone finds what coins they are looking for.
Yes "free" is good. Put that money towards coins! (or Mother's Day gift)
Opens at noon today, and 10am tomorrow. Have fun and enjoy! That is what this hobby is all about!
See you there today.
Will be there on Saturday. Looking forward to it!
Thanks to the organizers and the dealers!
Picked up a few Walking Liberties for a set, plus a few other items, all at decent prices.
Collecting: Cents, Dansco 7070, Half Dollars, 1947, 1976, random pieces I like

Thank you 🙏 everyone for your input on this thread and positive feed back. Very nice meeting some of you in person today. 🤝🏼
A very well-run show. Top of the line security. Very pleased. Is getting to be a very strong regional show. Looking forward to the next one!
I went yesterday, very nice show. The dealers were very nice to the customers.
Plenty of room to move around, unlike the other local shows, plenty of dealers.
My only purchase were 2 notes.
