    I, too, will concur with Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Especially Wednesday for the John Reich Collectors Society meeting, and Thursday for the Liberty Seated Collectors Club meeting. Depending upon your specific series, it is usually best to get onto the bourse early, before all of the other collectors with similar interests.
    They that can give up essential Liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither Liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin

    I think Sunday is the best day, if you don't like crowds or full tables.image

    Last week, The Man and I were speaking. He had the audacity to say to me, "Longacre, I know you have 5 weeks of vacation. I sure hope you have time to take it. As it looks now, we are so busy that I am not sure if it is possible."

    Is this a situation where you will lose it, or will "the Man" do the correct thing and either let you take it later or compensate you for it? Knowing corporate America......................

    At any show, earlier is always better.

    The best days, as stated, are probably the beginning of the show.

    Any day is fine, but Sunday only runs until 2PM and some dealers only contracted for space thru Saturday.

    I will be there the entire show and would welcome any/all visitors.

    I firmly believe in numismatics as the world's greatest hobby, but recognize that this is a luxury and without collectors, we can all spend/melt our collections/inventories.
