It's the best for dealers and customers. The big ANA show isn't even close.
Other then that theres the two shows here a year. This Saturday is one there should be 41 dealers with tables and a bunch more walking the floor.
Not really looking for much these days but if I were, it might be a toner.
Seems like everyone loves the winter FUN show... never been to that and all I hear from everyone is that it's a great show. Very few elaborate as to why it's so much better than other shows like the ANA World's Fair or other big shows. I guess I'll just have to go someday to see for myself.

the honest answer?
how about; every one i return back alive from?
a lot can happen on the road and numismatic coin shows require a LOT of it!

<< <i>I like the Long Beach Shows because they're pretty close by and they're the biggest and best shows on the West Coast.

Well!!!!... It is a wonderful 2 way street for a dealer. Rarely do I walk away with more than I came with. It is one of the few shows remaining where I still buy as much as I sell. Very,very busy show!

The Philadelphia ANA was awesome too though.

<< <i>The best small show is the Colorado Springs ANA summer seminar show, which is held between the two summer sessions. I have never left without finding at least a couple of really nice coins. >>
Hate to say this, but the ANA Summer Schedule now has deleted any free time off inbetween Sessions One & Two.
I'm sure the show will continue, but the attendees of the ANA just won't have an opportunity to attend it.
I vote for Winter FUN as the best show of the year.... Followed by the Summer ANA....

Coin collecting is not a hobby, it's an obsession !

Just make sure to let all the restaurants that offer Rocky Mountain Oysters know that coin dealers like theirs served with mustard!
<< <i>Greater Houston. >>
When I lived down there there were really not appreciable coin shows. Being a coin collector there sort of stunk.
I notice you are going to have Friday auction associated with the Expo show.This is a great idea.Can you tell us more at this time?

Yeah it could have been titled differently instead of luring us in just to get spammed.
<< <i>Am I the only one who thinks this is a massive SPAM fest? >>
Yeah ... one big FUN fest for those of us who aren't able to attend for one reason or another.

For 30 yrs I've attended the Willimantic, CT Coin and Paper Money show put on by the Mansfield Numismatic Society. It draws in a lot of dealers from NY, Maine, Mass, RI, NH, VT, and of course CT. Can't ever recall attending a bad show. I've watched about every other show within an hour from me go into decline over the past 30 years....except this one. I guess that's as good a definition of a "good" show as anything. Westchester County NY's Thanksgiving weekend show is probably my #2 choice. They held the 2003 summer ANA pre-show there.

You're not the only one. Not so much on the responses, but the OP due to the presentation/format of a first post.
<< <i>Am I the only one who thinks this is a massive SPAM fest? >>
You might think that, but my reponse was totally honest. To me winter FUN is #1 by a wide margin; the fall and winter Baltimore are tied for #2; and given the shows I attend, summer FUN is #3. EAC falls in there somewhere, but the selection at Summer FUN is better given what I collect. I am sure that Central States and Long Beach are better than Summer FUN, but I've never been to Long Beach and have only gone to Central States once. That time I got caught by PNG day which made the experience less enjoyable. I had limited time, and a lot of dealers with whom I do business could not open because of the PNG.

I was referring to the OP and one obvious shill respondent.

3. Small Show: Pelham, Alabama - This show had to move away for awhile, but is coming back
It's all about what the people want...
I agree with CRO, the OP is a bit spammy, but the I think the responses have made the thread worthwhile nonetheless.

Yes, Willimantic, CT one of the best shows in Southern New England. The club and especially C. John Ferreri work hard to make a great show. The club is non-profit and really doesn't make much money on the show.

This was a decision initiated by the ANA, but rather by Colorado College. Colorado College is closing their campus on July 4th meaning Seminar Week 2 must end (including departures from campus) on Thursday, July 3 -- not Friday, July 4.
In order to keep the same amount of time for classes, the schedule is having to be adjusted in a way which reduces the free time on Saturday and Sunday at the start of the week.
