nucklehead · February 5, 2003 10:06AM

Michael, go ahead and bring them, it'd be cool to see them again.

clw54 · February 5, 2003 10:10AM

I'm thinking about it.

MrLee · February 5, 2003 10:14AM

Come on up clw. Nuck's buying the coffee.

clw54 · February 5, 2003 10:15AM

In that case, I will.

nucklehead · February 5, 2003 10:24AM

Claw,please come if you can,it would be great meeting you face to face.And yes the coffees on me,there are 3 or 4 big coffee urns all on me.

clw54 · February 5, 2003 10:25AM

Okay, it's not that far.

MrLee · February 5, 2003 10:28AM

<< there are 3 or 4 big coffee urns all on me. >>

Shouldn't you put them on a table instead?

clw54 · February 5, 2003 10:31AM

This is cool. I get to meet another bunch of forum members.

nucklehead · February 5, 2003 10:32AM

Smarty pants, the urns are on several tables.

JamminJ · February 5, 2003 12:56PM

Another month already!

I must attend a wedding this Sunday but I should be able to make it in the afternoon for a bit between the ceremony and the reception, say around 2:00 PM. I'm also off to Denver tomorrow so hopefully I won't be snowed in!

-JamminJ

paigowjohnny · February 5, 2003 11:58PM

nucklehead...I'm thinking about making the drive up from San Diego...I've got a bunch of holes to fill. If I go, I'll wear my obnoxiously orange San Diego Gulls floppy hat to give your Angles hat a run for its money....

nucklehead · February 6, 2003 12:16AM

Sounds good to me! I'll be wearin the Angels cap for sure. Look forwards to meeting you!

paigowjohnny · February 6, 2003 1:28AM

bump

paigowjohnny · February 7, 2003 1:02AM

Hey nucklehead...what time are you planning to be there ????

Woodwind · February 7, 2003 11:24AM

I wish I could join you all this weekend and meet some of you, but I have to do my monthly Army Reserve commitment.

I'll keep my eyes and ears out for the next one. Feel free to PM a schedule if one is available. Perhaps I'll meet some of you at Long Beach. I'm planning on being there Saturday the 1st.

shirohniichan · February 8, 2003 1:15PM

I'll see if I can drop by for a bit. Has there been much dark side material there lately (besides bullion)?

nucklehead · February 8, 2003 2:49PM

<< Hey nucklehead...what time are you planning to be there ???? >>

Geez,I gotta check my own threads a little more often.I just saw your question,anyway I'll be there by 9:00 am.See ya then!

clw54 · February 9, 2003 12:51AM

I'll be there around 12 or 1. I'm about 5'7", wear glasses, brown hair parted down the middle, wearing a reddish flannel shirt.

shirohniichan · February 9, 2003 1:51AM

I won't be able to get there before 1:00 PM or so, if I can go. My daughter may have the flu. If she really does and my wife has to go somewhere, I'll have to stay home.

I'm about 4'8" tall, balding, and will wear a '70's style Elvis jumpsuit.

clw54 · February 9, 2003 1:58AM

Same outfit as the Irvine meeting, so it should be easy to spot you.

shirohniichan · February 9, 2003 5:08AM

This is a new white, leather jumpsuit with lots of rhinestones. The one at the Irvine meeting was red silk.

Coinmonger · February 9, 2003 6:52AM

Here is a sweety I picked up at the show...

shirohniichan · February 9, 2003 7:41AM

I didn't see coinmonger, but I saw Mr. Lee and his daughter, nucklehead, and clw54. Nucklehead was easiest to pick out since he was the only one at the show wearing a complete Angels uniform and carrying an upside down Cardinals banner. clw54's Hillary Clinton T-shirt was a nice touch, too.

Coinmonger · February 9, 2003 8:26AM

I was too busy looking at and buying coins - besides I don't know what any of you look like.

I was they guy with the "pissing the whole world off - one person at a time" tee shirt.

They had a very nice hobo nickel display at the show. I was drooling over that for a while.

Shiro, I don't remember seeing any short and balding Elvis with Rinestones.

clw54 · February 9, 2003 8:59AM

I saw that shirt. It was Coinmonger!

tjennings · February 9, 2003 9:13AM

<< carrying an upside down Cardinals banner >>

What??

MrLee · February 9, 2003 9:31AM

What a great show this weekend. Really busy. And what a pleasure it was to finally meet the top poster here, clw54. Regardless of what many of you have heard, he's a true gentleman. It was good seeing Shiro again although it was hard to talk with him with so many autograph seekers surrounding him. A special thanks to Strat (John Ruiz) for looking at and grading some of my Morgans. I truly appreciated that. Sorry I didn't get to meet you coinmonger. Next time look for Nuckelhead and he'll point us all out. (He looks like a Hobbit-you can't miss him.) I saw that display of Hobo Nickels. They were outstanding. I just wish they had been priced. Not that I could afford any but I was curious.

We arrived there just before 10am and hurried in for the drawing. They like kids to pull the names out so my daughter is asked to do that a lot. First drawing and who's name does she pull out? HER'S! She received a PCGS 1983-S PR68DCAM Lincoln and a $10 gift certificate good at any table there. (Plus a couple IHC's each time for pulling out the names) There's a drawing every hour and she's called upon to pull the name for the 12 o'clock drawing. She pulls out MY NAME! First time I've ever won anything there. An ICG 1944-D MS67 RD Lincoln plus a $10 Certificate!

We scouted around and I found such a deal on toned Rosie's and toned Merc's. Her and I had a field day and bought just about everything the guy had. Here's a scan of one.

My scanner doesn't do it justice but the colors are beautiful.

Frattlaw, Nuck and Jenni, as always it was a joy spending time with you guys. I can't wait for Long Beach.

shirohniichan · February 9, 2003 9:46AM

Here's what I got.

Flash · February 9, 2003 11:06AM

I'm glad everybody had a good time at the show. I've been avoiding going to any show until Long Beach. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to save up any money.

clw54 · February 9, 2003 11:07AM

I spent exactly $15, even though there were some temptations around. It was fun meeting everybody there, well worth the drive.

nucklehead · February 9, 2003 11:14AM

<< carrying an upside down Cardinals banner >>

What?? >>

TJ, Shiroh's just yanking your chain,I don't even own a Cards banner.Was great meeting clw54 for the first time and seeing all the rest of the gang again.Let's all get together again in Long Beach!

gmarguli · February 9, 2003 11:21AM

Let's all get together again in Long Beach!

Yes. Which dealers table should we stand in front of for an hour while driving away all his customers this time?

braddick · February 9, 2003 11:32AM

LEGEND.

braddick · February 9, 2003 11:34AM

Or, better still, the Accugrade table. It's kind of creepy way back there against the far wall, but we can make it comfy.

Done deal.

MrLee · February 9, 2003 11:47AM

Done deal.

braddick · February 9, 2003 11:47AM

Ok, but just be sure NOT to move any of her chairs. . .

nucklehead · February 9, 2003 11:53AM

I'm in, I'll bring my own chair.

JamminJ · February 9, 2003 1:48PM

Hey there,

Couldn't break away from the wedding I attended today, so I didn't make it. Sorry to hear I missed out on a well attended show.

Oh well, there's always Long Beach!

-JamminJ

wallstreetman · February 9, 2003 2:01PM

I got there late, about 2:00. I had my 7 year old daughter with me, did anyone notice? I was looking for John(Strat), had mega bucks this time and wanted to seriously look at his best Franklins! I only bought one coin, a 50 Franklin I believe will grade 65FBL for $65, just as I was about to head out the door! John, what time did you leave, I heard you were there earlier?

MrLee · February 9, 2003 2:52PM

JamminJ.
Please inform your friends and family not to schedule weddings, birthday parties, ect. on coin show days. Thank you for your cooperation.
MrLee.

nucklehead · February 9, 2003 3:08PM

I agree, coin shows come FIRST before weddings,graduations,school plays,soccer,birthdays etc.

paigowjohnny · February 10, 2003 7:21AM

I was glad to meet nucklehead and his lovely girlfriend, clw "the claw", and FratLaw. Nucks pointed out Mr. Lee to me as well, but I was in the middle of throwing my money all over the room. Filled a couple holes and did a few upgrades to my Walking Liberty set.

Sorry I wasn't more sociable...besides having my head buried in the coin piles, I was coming down with what is now a wicked cold..thought my head was gonna explode the whole drive back to San Diego.

Nice to put some faces to names of the SoCal CU contingent.

P.S.>>>and only saw one ACG slab in the whole show

clw54 · February 10, 2003 7:28AM

"P.S.>>>and only saw one ACG slab in the whole show."

Hi, paigowjohnny. It was good meeting you.

Was that a 1924-D Lincoln with questionable color?

nucklehead · February 10, 2003 11:54AM

Paigowjohnny,great meeting you as well! sure hope you feel better soon as Long beach is'nt far away if you plan to go.

shirohniichan · February 10, 2003 1:27PM

I think I saw wallstreetman breeze by with daughter in tow. If I don't have a job next week, I'll see some of you at Long Beach! I'll wear my Japanese armor this time.

nucklehead · February 10, 2003 2:47PM

This I gotta see,try to make it on Thurs. that's the only day I can go.

wallstreetman · February 10, 2003 3:25PM

Hey shiro, I am going to meet Don Willis(Premium Numismatics) at table 432 on Thursday, a friend of his will have what I need, met him at North Anahiem Show! I will also come back on Sat if you want to meet. You know what I look like now!

JamminJ · February 11, 2003 12:17PM

Hey MrLee,

I shall duly inform them! In their defense I will say thiat this wedding was planned before I knew of the monthly coin show.
