Who among us is a collector that is going? (Not a dealer with a table.)

I can hardly wait to get there. I love coin shows!

    My flight lands around 3pm on Wednesday next week. I plan on hustling over to the convention center and getting my Early Bird badge then looking at some auction lots and time permitting make a quick loop around the bourse.

    I will be there Wednesday around 1:30PM to entertain myself with auction lot viewing....and hopefully meeting a few people if the opportunity presents itself.



    Thursday will be handing things off to PCGS to photograph and then the GREAT COIN HUNT BEGINS.



    Friday will be a little more hunting and socializing as the PCGS Luncheon is that day.



    On Saturday I will take my kids to the show to do the kid activities and socialize a little more.



    I can't wait!

    I signed up for Early Bird, so I'll be there sometime Wednesday afternoon (and early each morning)!

    It's absolutely marvelous living in the town where the convention is. No flights, hotels, or restaurants. More money for coins!
    I love them Barber Halves.....

    Last FUN show I went to was in 2010. I just so happened to be on vacation during the show and stopped by. Saw great stuff for my ebay store, made a call and got 20K loan from another dealer and started buying. Had my best month on ebay right after that show with all the new goodies.

    Would hope to meet some collectors who like coin shows as much as I do in addition to my dealer friends.
    Please PM me if you are open to saying "Hello" on the bourse.

    I will be there from Early Bird opening until Friday afternoon.

    Landing at Tampa airport at 9:00am heading right to show. Staying until Friday , fly out at 4:30 hopefully lighter in the wallet but heavier in the carry on.
