The Baltimore Show today and what I bought!

In my opinion, the Baltimore show was very slow today. The dealers said it was slow Thursday, "good" on Friday and slow again today. You could walk the isles without bumping into anybody. I saw a lot of people to include Shortgap Bob (Reeded Edge), Rich Ulrich, David Kahn, Butternut, Lopez and Associates, Andy from Angel Dees, Running Bear Coins, Rick Gross, and many others. My wife accompanied me and then went to the Inner Harbor, where I met her and we had lunch (UNOs).
I bought 8 silver bars: 3 Watergate themed bars, Halloween 1973, Fathers Day 1974, St Patrick's day 1975, The General Locomotive 1972 and The Jenny Curtiss Biplane. Wayne Herndon had 2 1961 Proof sets with awesome toned nickels. One was purple and the other has golden centers and ringed in blue. Miguel Lopez had an old Hannes Tulving 'slab' 1923 Peace dollar and BlueCC took pictures of several coins for me. It was fantastic.
For me, it was a very productive show.

Thank you for the report, Nice silver bars...Congratulations.
Anyone remember the old "Error Train Bar" that brought $100 when silver was less than $10?

I remember the error bar, but do not remember what the error was. Man! That has been a long time ago!
Thank you for the show report. Quite an interesting group of purchases.
Thanks for the report.
Thanks for sharing. I enjoy hearing what others are doing at the shows since I don't get to go to a real show that often.
Sorry I didn't see you at my table. Happen to have some very cool art bars from an old collection. Oh well maybe next time. Jon
Thanks for the report; Baltimore has been one of those great shows, I remember when Silvertowne, HA and all the other major dealers there you could do huge business; get coins graded there and then sold to top buyers.
Sounds like a GREAT day and multi tasking with the wifey. Well played.
Congrats on your cool pick ups

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
Nice haul. I like the Watergate bar. But why does Martha Mitchell look so umm familar, can't quite place it
Very nice some good picks.
Hoard the keys.
By the way...is the CD your coin pictures?? Cheers, RickO
It is! The CD is from Todd/BlueCC
Always good to see you and chat a little Mike!
Good report, Mike, and it was nice to see you at the show!
