I would like to be there but can't. The last time that I went to a show in Houston was in 1974.
I'll be there Thursday and Friday. Saturday is my wife's birthday, so I'll be gone by then.
CRO will be there.

Great show to get dealer face time - it is not as active as for example, FUN, so you can spend some time talking to the dealers. Alot of great dealers with great stuff setting up, and H-Town is known for its fantastic restaurants including many within a few blocks of the George Brown Convention Center. If anyone needs recommendations on where to eat, let me know.
Did I mention that usually the 1rst week of December we are in the upper 60s to low 70s? What a respite from the northern regions if you come.
Best, SH

Auction on Thursday & Friday evening using Proxibid. Many interesting lots. Catalogue on website.
Anyone out there who still wants to exhibit? Competitive and non-competitive exhibits are still welcome.
Schedule of events are now up on the website.
I'll be manning the ANACS table...
Only 3 weeks to go- if you procrastinated, make plans now.
We will be there Thursday and Friday. Table E.
I'm a member of the Houston Coin Club and have attended the last few years.
A large coin show is still a small show by convention center standards, so it takes up a single Hall. There will be some signage to direct you to the right hall (Hall E). It is towards the southern end of the convention center. If you don't want to pay much for parking, there is usually street parking available Downtown during the day within 3-4 blocks of the show.
