Coin Show report.

Early this AM I headed to the TSNS Fall show in Chattanooga ( East Ridge ). I arrived a couple of hours after the show had opened. The bourse is usually sold out with a waiting list. This time the show conflicted with the Baltimore show and consequently about 20% of the tables were empty. The same thing happened with the Spring show when it conflicted with the Spring ANA show in Dallas. Someone needs to schedule better.

I was only looking for PCGS coins and national bank notes. I looked at an 1843 $1 in PCGS AU 58. The obverse was ok but the reverse had a couple of hard hits above the eagle. Also saw an 1883 CC $1 in PCGS 65+ with a semi prooflike look and a little color. It was not something that I needed ,so I stayed focused. I did not see any national bank notes that I needed.

I got to meet Yorkshireman and had a nice conversation with him. I also talked to the ANA District Representative.

After a coupe of hours ,I had not found anything and headed for home. It was a nice day looking for coins.

    Thank you for the report.

    Was wondering the same on bullion with the recent spike in precious metals.

    Thanks for the report. Yes, it's never good when a regional show conflicts with a national show.

    All of the action seemed very subdued.
