    I am truly sorry that we never had a sit down. I really wanted to shoot the breeze about the Burg and coins.

    Next time for sure.

    Hey RYK
    Great report.
    I thought I replied to this thread earlier, but when I just re-read it I don't see my postimage
    Thanks for taking the time to write this up RYK.
    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"

    That report was so good that I'm not going to write my own. image From my arrival on Wed. evening (a bit late thanks to flight cancellations, changing airlines, and weather delays) and meeting RYK at the Lemus-Queller auction until my departure following the NGC luncheon on Saturday (thanks for the ride, Lakesammman!), the show was busy, busy, busy. I chatted with many forum members, including RYK, Boiler, Lakesammman, MrEureka, MadMarty, Tmot, Dennis88, CRO, CCU, FinallyHere, LloydMincy, the dealer f/k/a Coinguy, Barndog (and his bro), Cape, Caitlin, Foodude, EagleEye, JrGman, Sunnywood (to whom we all owe thanks for displaying his toned Morgans), Julian, Newmismatist, KrytoniteComics, Pistareen, DoUPlayOnePocket, and lots of other friends who <gasp> don't participate on the forums. Thanks to everyone for a good time! I was a net seller at the show (in both dollars and number of coins), being fortunate to sell three pieces at strong prices in a generally weakening market. I came home with this coin -- a bit tougher than you might think -- and some cash for opportunities that I hope to take advantage of later this year.

    Getting to know people here on the forums is a real treat. It was great to finally meet you and have dinner.

    Very nice report - hope we can get together more often in the future. image
