    I will not be there, and was severely chastised by Pistareen for announcing this at the CSNS show. I did get the EAC auction catalog today, and may send in some bids.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible.

    Not making it this year- but my bids on on their way- next year it's in my backyard

    the collection

    It only costs $25 to join the John Reich Collectors Society, and that gets you the wonderful journal put out by the club. I will look forward to seeing you there.
