    I will be there for the day on Friday (only). I will be assisting others at a Liberty Seated Collectors Club table, disseminating information on the club and what we do. I will also attend the LSCC club meeting, which is open to everyone. Make a point to come to the show, and particularly to visit the LSCC table, where we will have several interesting coins to display.

    I went today. I saw some nice coins-some priced at retail, others beyond that. I saw a couple of errors coins I would have liked to have, but I felt they were overpriced (I Did not try to negotiate).





    However, I also saw quite a bit of cleaned or otherwise damaged junk people were pricing at full retail and not noting issues. There was one dealer in particular that really stuck out. He had all sorts of coins labeled as gem bu and nearly all were cleaned (and not be gem for that matter).





    One thing I learned today is that the majority of dealers are still pricing inventory at levels of pre-recession. I will stick with my normal routes to making purchases. At least that way, I know I am getting a fair deal. I do not require rock bottom pricing, but certainly should be in line with what the market dictates.
