1976 New York City. The hobby and the shows (and the available coins) were quite different then. Still, every show is always an adventure, even to this day. Some big, some small, but always things to learn and friendships to be made.....

Edited to add: Also meeting Wayne Miller and John Love at the '76 ANA, and getting an autographed copy of Miller's new book "An Analysis of Morgan and Peace Dollars." (Still have it, but it is falling apart from 33 years of use.)

I do remember that exhibit. The ANA Curator let me come back with him and the exhibit into the security room at the end of the show while he took it apart, and he gave me five minutes to play with the coins before he returned them to their owners. TD >>
Did ya "flip" any of them Tom?
I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

Wow, that's gotta be a record. PTvetter wins the prize. I had no idea there were ANA conventions way back in 1898!
