I realize there was a thread entitled something like "40 Days to the FUN Show, who will be going?"
It's hard to believe the show is next week!
I know I am still something of a "newbie" on this forum. i do not want to upset anyone.
However, I would like to meet and make connections with like minded collectors who will be at the show. It is always fun to talk coins. (Thanks for the phrase, Bill Shamhart.)
I am a member of the Liberty Seated Collectors Club and will be attending that meeting on Friday morning. In addition to Seated coins, I love CC Morgans, Civil War dates and British coins.
Would anybody out there with similiar interests like to meet for breakfast, dinner, drinks, at an auction, connect inside the show, etc.? I will be there for the Early Bird opening on Wednesday.
Please reply or PM me if interested. Perhaps we can swap names and numbers in order to arrange a meeting.

Thursday I will be going to Lot Viewing then tackling the show searching for Mercury Dime Varieties with my daughter and then racing home to pick up my son by 6PM.
Friday I will be going to the PCGS luncheon with my son and then doing a little more searching and racing home to pick up my daughter by 6PM.
At least that's the plan. If anyone is uber eager to meet me, just send me a PM, either before hand or even during the show days as I typically check messages here as often as I can.
I do have a list of folks I already plan to connect with, as do most others...lots to accomplish and never enough time.

<< <i>This thread begs a question from me! Years ago there was a bunch of folks from the ebay coin chat board that would meet up at FUN for dinner and have a good time together! Made alot of friends from there. Do any members here ever do that? >>
I remember an epic forum member dinner at a show in Baltimore some years back - probably 50 members were there. And one in Pittsburgh where Frank the Pug humped my leg (you board old-timers will understand) - a couple dozen or more came to that dinner. So it does happen.
New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
Not many responses yet, but I keep hoping.
Sans Frank the Pug.
