Skyman and I went last year and are planning to do so again this year.
A fun way to spend a few hours.
Any other No. Cal./SF Bay Area forumites planning on attending? If so, send me a PM.

Saving my coin for Santa Clara- that's right around to corner.
Unfortunately I have been BANNED from taking a bourse table at this show by the show chairman and the show directors... unilaterally, unfairly and without merit in my opinion. To this day I have not been offered an opportunity for reconsideration.
With those developments in mind don't expect to see me there next weekend. Unless a reconsideration is made to me personally or a new board of directors is installed to lead the DVCC and their annual show, I will not give an endorsement to the DVCC nor their coin show.
Oh yes, one more thing...fleet week in San Francisco is also this same weekend. Watching the Blue Angels fly is way more entertaining than attending a small coin show in the East Bay.

Yes, I remember at a meeting after the Fall show, someone actually got up and in an elitist fashion, decried the seller of BU 1958 Wheats as not worthy of being in the DNS Fall Show.
I was the editor of the Die Break for awhile when I was still a junior member. But in 1992 I moved away from the Bay Area.

That was definitely not me. The whole controversy actually has nothing to do with the actual selling of coins.

Skyman and I are planning on attending the show on Saturday afternoon after having lunch together. Anyone else have an interest in showing up? If so, send me or Skyman a PM.

That's terrible, but it's definitely THEIR loss without you set up there.
I'll be there probably on Saturday. We'll see how things go.
