Bigger coin shows

I see that the FUN show is coming up soon. I have never been and was wondering about how many tables/dealers are there?

Also, what are some of the bigger annual shows across the country? I want to attend a couple and want to start planning now.

Thanks for any advice you can offer!

    The FUN website states there will be more than 1,500 dealers.

    I would also recommend the shows in Baltimore. There are 3 or 4 each year.

    You cannot beat the Baltimore and Fun shows both large and FREE admission too.image Thats a rartiy these days and for such a large convetion a great deal. Even small shows these days charge you 2 $ or more dollars admission fee.With the economy tight evey bit helps. Notice the NY International show charges $10 admission guess thats the highest aroundimage. and the Ana charges $6 or 4 with coupon wish on that one that admission would be valid for all days rather than one. The one i attended in Sacramento-ANA it was DEAD on friday with barely any collectors floor that day.image Did they aever announce attendence for that one or others? The weather could be partly to blame because it was real freezing rain and heavy wind for Sacramento in February.

    Guess the audience for the NY show is not cater to the casual collector or proably the high rent of the hotel has alot to do with it.
