Just got back from Baltimore

Had a good time at the Baltimore show. Had lunch with TooTawl, AirplaneNut, Newsman, and MikeDixon at the WharfRat. Enjoyed meeting these forum folks there. 
The show didn't seem very crowded to me, lots of tables but not so many people looking over the goods.
I initially was looking for Walker short sets in MS-64 but after seeing what was available I felt I'd be happier spending a few more dollars for a higher grade. My target price per coin just keeps going up! Now those MS-65 Standing Liberty quarters are on my list!
A special thanks to Wayne Herndon for taking the time to educate me and just for being a good guy in general.
I bought a 1941 PCGS MS-66 Walking Liberty half with a nice golden glow from him. Or was it Wayne that had the nice golden glow? I'd better look at that coin again.
I don't feel so stupid anymore, guess I should start thinking about a new handle here.

BigTarget. Good to hear that you found a coin you liked.

Yes- Wayne is a nice guy with nice coins.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
Wish I could say the same about your lunch group!
Specially that Dixon feller!
I'll also vouch for Wayne. I met him for the first time at Long Beach. He was very helpful and had a great selection of coins.

Dixon already did the "those wharf rats sure taste a lot like fish" joke on another thread so I guess I'll just have to play it straight and say I had the fish and chips. No complaints, very tasty.
I was considering the chili but I had a long drive back home and didn't want to have any gastro-intestinal "accidents" on the way home.
