ANA show in Atlanta

Tibor · January 20, 2014 11:31PM

Is anyone planning on going to the ANA show in Atlanta at the end
of February? I collect Early Dated European coins and would like to
meet with other collectors regardless of collecting interest. I am a
30+ year member of the ANA. I hope to meet some of you.

JJSingleton · January 20, 2014 11:56PM

I have a home in suburban Atlanta so I will definitely be there.

blu62vette · January 21, 2014 12:03AM

I will have a table there doing photography and selling Morgans.

rkfish · January 21, 2014 12:11AM

I'll be at #520-522

Flatwoods · January 21, 2014 12:22AM

I'll be there.

ThePennyLady · January 21, 2014 12:51AM

I'll be there! I have never been to Atlanta and am really looking forward to this show. (I'll also be exhibiting my Penny Potpourri exhibit again.)

Dentuck · January 21, 2014 1:37AM

I'll be there, at the Whitman Publishing booth and around the bourse.

MFH · January 21, 2014 1:46AM

I will be there.

Table 427 - Holsonbake Numismatics

Stop by and say hello !

Tibor · January 21, 2014 2:00AM

Maybe a group of us could go out for dinner. Any other suggestions?

amwldcoin · January 21, 2014 3:08AM

I'll be set up. For those who are budget minded. I got the Courtyard behind Cumberland Mall(borderline walking distance) for $56 + tax on a priceline express deal.

keyman64 · January 21, 2014 3:14AM

I really really really want to be there but the odds are against me.

copperhunter · January 21, 2014 3:17AM

I will be! I am very stoked about going, as my office is a block from the venue. I will be there that Friday.

MsMorrisine · January 21, 2014 4:10AM

That part of Atlanta will be like being in the suburbs

Wish I were there...

Tookybandit · January 21, 2014 4:45AM

I'm going!

Flash · January 21, 2014 4:47AM

I won't be going, but if I did I would definitely have to take some time away from the show to go to the Coca-Cola museum.

Dentuck · January 21, 2014 5:09AM

Check out the Georgia Aquarium, too, if you have time --- it's amazing!

World of Coca-Cola . . . the Fabulous Fox Theatre . . . the Varsity . . .

If you like Asian and/or Mexican / Latino food, you can drive up and down Buford Highway and pick 100 excellent restaurants, large and small.

Margaret Mitchell House . . . the Atlanta Botanical Garden . . . the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historical Site . . . Jimmy Carter Library and Museum . . . Turner Field . . . the High Museum of Art . . . the Center for Puppetry Arts . . . Zoo Atlanta . . . local theater and improv . . . the Atlanta Cyclorama and Civil War Museum . . . There's a LOT to see and do in Atlanta!

The new Skyview ferris wheel, downtown . . . if you collect paper money, the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta has a museum on Peachtree Street . . .

Shopping at Atlantic Station . . . the Fernbank Science Center and Museum of Natural History . . .

These ideas are just scratching the surface. If you can bring your spouse and kids along, go for it. There's plenty to entertain.

Julian · January 21, 2014 7:01AM

I will be there at my table, start to finish. Please stop by and say hello.

WTCG · January 21, 2014 3:23PM

I will be there for most of the show.

CoinRaritiesOnline · January 21, 2014 9:34PM

CRO will be at table #513 for the duration.

RichieURich · January 22, 2014 1:32AM

Rich Uhrich Rare U. S. Coins Inc. will have a nice selection of Bust and Seated coins, plus some great toned coins from other series, at Table #823 for the entire show.

Stop by and say hello!

BarberFanatic · January 22, 2014 1:40AM

I will be attending for sure... just not sure what day/days yet... probably Friday. Any Barber enthusiasts interested in meeting up for dinner?

panexpoguy · January 22, 2014 2:06AM

A friend and I are making plans to go as I type. Need to find a way to get down to The Varsity and eat some hotdogs as it is on my bucket list.

Yorkshireman · January 22, 2014 2:07AM

Anyone who plans to be there and has an interest in seated liberty material (especially halves), please reply or PM me.
I would like to get a group together for dinner, maybe Thursday night.

DrBuster · January 22, 2014 2:42AM

What are the show details? This isn't the monthly Marietta show is it??

Flatwoods · January 22, 2014 2:50AM

ANA show

DrBuster · January 22, 2014 4:15AM

<< ANA show >>

Ah, thanks. I'll be there half hunting.

amwldcoin · January 22, 2014 9:47AM

That question did give me a big Grin!

We are staying in town so would be up for a get together Cary!

Thank you MM.

mustanggt · February 18, 2014 3:13AM

Be there for the duration at table #530

AmandaVarner · February 18, 2014 3:47AM

I'll be there, too! Though I know I'm brand new to these forums and no one knows me enough to care yet.

Table #213!

ThePennyLady · February 18, 2014 3:12PM

Would love to have all forum members stop by my table (No. 528), say hi, pick up a copper coin card, and let me take your photo for my coin show report. Be sure to watch out for flying corks in the afternoon!!

Also, we will be having a WIN (Women in Numismatics) general meeting open to anyone, men too, on Saturday morning, March 1, at 9:00 a.m. in Room 120. I will be giving audio visual presentation on penny exonumia.

LochNESS · February 18, 2014 6:03PM

<< … we will be having a WIN (Women in Numismatics) general meeting open to anyone, men too, on Saturday morning… >>

Men are invited? Are you playing matchmaker?

Really glad to see the positive responses here. As a resident of Atlanta for over 23 years, I'm obviously thrilled the ANA is coming back.

A few notes:
• Hip locals refer to ourselves as ATLiens (like aliens) and the city as ATL so if you tweet or Facebook, do that

• nobody says "the dirty south" anymore, and certainly not "the dirty dirty" ... so don't do that

(this is also true of the "Bankhead Bounce" dance)
• If you enjoy live Blues, I'll be playing hammond with some great cats at Steve's Live Music on Thursday night. You'll need a car to get there, but it ain't far (that means is not). PM for details.
• there's a ton of food options - including some nice sit-down restaurants and a decent mall - up/down Cobb Parkway (extremely near the venue) so DO NOT feel forced to eat "fast food" or "convenience store" foodstuffs during your stay
• there is NO marta / rail transit from/near the venue, so if you plan to travel the city you'll need a car

• traffic will be heavy on I-75 North from approx. 4-7 PM on Thursday, and 3-7 PM on Friday. Saturday traffic will be much much lighter. Traffic on I-285 eastbound will likely be stop/go (yeah, really heavy) by 4 PM on Thurs/Fri so if you must go that way leave earlier.
• people here like to say "stop light" when referring to traffic lights (yes, even if it happens to be green at the time). So do not drive endlessly looking for an actual stop light. Just assume they mean traffic lights. Or just use the GPS on your smartphone

• If you are stuck with four flat tires, no gas money, and bleeding on the sidewalk, please feel free to call me @ 404-433-1071. I'll be there Tues and Wed from 8:00 AM - 2:00 PM, and Thursday from noon - 4:00 PM. I will probably be there Fri / Sat, but my hours on those days are not yet solidified.

Love blues music and would love to see you perform - please provide details and we'll try and catch your performance on Thursday night!

MICHAELDIXON · February 19, 2014 4:51AM

I'll be there all 3 days walking the floor.

pmac · February 19, 2014 5:10AM

Has the ice melted yet?

copperhunter · February 19, 2014 6:11AM

Yes. Upper 60s/Low 70s today and tomorrow.

PCGSPhoto · February 19, 2014 6:39AM

Just to let everyone know, PCGS Photography will be at the Atlanta ANA show. This will be Chrissie Good's first solo show, but I will be in close contact with her of course.

gsa1fan · February 20, 2014 1:13PM

I'll be there any one have GSA what list let me know if I can help you

leothelyon · February 20, 2014 2:26PM

Isn't there another 3 day show, same weekend, in the greater Chicago. How will all the dealers fill those shows?

Leo

Leo >>

I have a good friend who is part owner of that show. Needless to say he is very unhappy with the ANA stepping on their show. The ANA could have contacted them and they could have changed their dates. The ANA didn't announce their dates until it was too late and they surely knew well before they posted their show dates.

Seems the ANA has pretty well filled their show.

njcoincrank · February 20, 2014 9:19PM

I will be there the entire time at tables 709-711. Please stop by and say hello.

ThePennyLady · February 24, 2014 12:33AM

Heading out in a couple days - we've been having 80 degree weather here in SoCal so now I will finally have to break out the winter coat and sweaters!

Tibor · February 24, 2014 3:57AM

The ANA plans their shows 1-2 years in advance. This should be plenty
of notice for coin show promoters. Besides, there is over 700 miles
between the 2 shows. This should give smaller local dealers a chance
to set up at the Chicago show.

Shrub68 · February 24, 2014 4:08AM

Will attend Thursday and a half day Friday!

blu62vette · February 24, 2014 4:46AM

<< Will attend Thursday and a half day Friday! >>

Don't work to hard Jim!!!
