Lunch at Long Beach GREAT!!!!!

I just got back from Long Beach.
PCGS treated us to lunch.
David Hall gave us an open to ask question.
And he gave us a hint of PCGS’s future.

  • I found the show to be very exciting. Is my third year going to Long Beach and this was the best.
    Everyone was buying with one hand and selling with the other. The dealer I spent time with was to busy to even chat.
    I saw so many toned coins I couldn’t buy them all. There were tone pennies through dollars.
    I spent all day there Thursday and today and more then like all tomorrow too.

    The great thing is I still have some money and I only have hit half the tables.

    Did they have any freebies?

    Sounds like people have been hard at work toning coins then.

    The toners I bought were all very cheap and very real.

    I wasn't serious, melikecoins. Not completely, anyway. I saw quite a few, but what really caught my eye were early proofs, particularly seated liberty dollars. Some are stunning when the light hits them right.

    I enjoyed the luncheon as well. David Hall was open and honest about PCGS, it's weaknesses, strengths, and the desire to expand the registry with with the collectors want to see.
    Mike (I forget his last name, forgive me) who is a vice president at PCGS sat at our table during lunch and was very straigt forward answering questions about PCGS. Plus he talked a little about his collecting interests as well. It was a nice luncheon and I'd like to thank BJ for doing such a wonderful job organizing it. She's really a great person and very nice to talk to.

    Yikes...I have never thought that I would see the day when I would feel old but today is it. 1986...it was a good year, at least if you were not a space shuttle astronaut. I graduated from H.S. and started College....and a fellow forum member was born.
