Numismatic things to do in Manhattan!

I'm planning on taking my first ever trip to NYC in November, and am looking for some things to do to fill the time. Of course I'll be taking the wife to Broadway, and dining at the nicest places at which my credit card won't get declined, and visiting my main man Alexander Hamilton's home. Other than that, though, I'd like to mix in one Numismatic highlight -- whether it be great coin store, good museum, or whatever, let me know what you think I should see! If you don't know what might interest me, see my signature below.
Yes, I do sell on Ebay

Feel free to ask for my BST references!

*I reserve the right to change the direction of my collection at whiplash-inducing speeds.

    A tour at the FED for sure, their museum is outstanding!! I took the tour few months ago and was impressed.

    Then you can visit Brigandi's on 44th Street and 6th Avenue.
    They have a nice display of coins and currency.

    edited to add: feel free to send me a PM if you have any question.

    You have to go to Ellis Island .. get the Ferry at Battery Park. You will never regret going there .. it's what our ancestors did, no matter how far back. As long as you are at Battery Park, go to Governors Island as well .. there is no better place to see Manhattan, the Statue, Ellis, and Brooklyn, bar none.

    Great advice! I love Ellis and Governor's Islands.

    Though, the best views of Manhattan are in an helicopter! image
