    I'm in Naples, Florida.

    There are a couple of dealers in the area.

    I highly recommend one, Ben King of
    American Rare Coin & Collectables,
    3400 Tamiami Trail North [ US 41 ]
    Suite 101
    Naples, FL 34103

    Ph: 239 - 262 - 1932.

    He's open Mon thru Thurs - 10- 4 [?]
    Call for updated hours.

    His wife's name is Kathy and both are
    great to work with.

    My retail furniture store is right up the
    street [ just south of the coin shop ]
    at Robb & Stucky, 2777 Tamiami Tr. No.
    ...just ask for Mike at the Receptionist's desk...

    always nice to meet fellow board members !!

    I go to Naples all the time, and have been in your store Mike. Small world!

    The flea market near the dog track has 2 booths that has coins as well. Mostly stuff I don't collect, but they do have coins.

    I will have to visit those mentioned when I am down there next.

    If I say something in the woods, and my wife isn't around. Am I still wrong?

    I have tried getting into Gulf Coast Coins a number of times
    over the years and have not had any luck. Either they are at
    a show - or are closed when I stopped by. I have heard that
    they have nice mid to high end goods and would love to visit.
    I didn't know they closed their Naples store. So much for that
    I guess...

    The shop on 5 th Ave was in a different location when I first
    came down to Florida and there wasn't too much that caught
    my eye. I ran into the owner at FUN and asked him where he
    moved hisstore - its further down on 5th Av So - closer to 3rd So.

    I think the friendliness of Ben & Kathy King is what has kept
    me coming back - although I hardly venture into the store as
    I'm busy in my own retail store. I have picked up some nice
    things over the years - AU Liberty Head Nickels - as well as
    AU Barber Quarters - and nice mid range Barber Halves.

    Let me know when you're coming down - and BigJayVee
    drop me a PM - and maybe we can meet sometime and
    "chew coins"... image.....Partagas - same goes for you too !!
