Bigger than the monthly Anaheim show, but smaller than San Diego, and much smaller than Long Beach.

Wish I knew you were going sooner Cam. I was thinking about coming up, but made other plans, and would've been nice to meet you. Quite a few San Diego folks are coming up for it.

I'll have to see if my YN wants to make the trip up.

I need to get some 'Ike' Whitman books for my kids thanks to Bochiman!

Hi all.

The show was a lot of fun this morning.

On the way up there, my son counted the 100 Ike dollars that we had picked up at the post office that Bochiman sent to us. (Thanks Ron!) He only lost count once (in the 80s, haha!).

My son had a blast at the show and asked if we could go back tomorrow.

OH! He also told a half dozen dealers about the Frattlaw YN competition that he *won* here on the PCGS website (as he calls it). "I won a big box of coins.", he told everyone. The dealers all thought that was really neat (impressed is more like it).

My son ended up buying more coins and currency than I did... Although I think my few cost a little more, haha.

There was a table where you could take a free book / magazine. He grabbed a copy of the Numismatist... On the way back home, reading in the backseat of the car... he asked if he could join the ANA. I told him sure. He signed up on their website tonight.

Ya' know I am looking for a publicist!

Thanks for posting that. It really makes it all worthwhile knowing that 2 months later he's still talking about it!

I was there, unfortunately we didn't get a chance to meet. Perhaps in Long Beach.

I attended yesterday. The one observation I made was how friendly the people were. This included all the dealers I dealt with. I will definitely attend the next show!
