If you could only go to one show a year more than 200 miles from your house which one would you pick? Would the other attractions in the area impact your decision? Are you more interest in shows with certain dealers or??? I am bored and thinking a drive to fun might be fun. 1448 miles each way.

If you want to go to have something to do, sure, why not, but really it's just like any other major show, wxcept it's in Florida, and it's of course.....fun!
Hands down, the winter FUN show in Florida. Huge venue, club meetings, extensive auctions, large collector displays, etc.
Don't care about the location since I'm there for the hobby. Warmer weather is a bonus.

+1 for Winter FUN! It's been my only show for several years now.
Here's a warning parable for coin collectors...
That's easy. Winter FUN hands down.
I have never been the the Winter FUN so I will say the ANA
Latin American Collection
Although I have not attended, I have always thought the winter FUN would be the show of shows....Cheers, RickO
The ANA and FUN are at the top of the list; I give the FUN show at very slight advantage to be the one show of the year to attend.
Winter FUN at Orlando. Next come the Long Beach and Baltimore shows. If I only lived 225 miles from LB or Balty those would be the easiest.
For me, it is the summer ANA. I seem to make it every odd year (but did also make it last year). Plan on being in Denver this summer.
FUN followed closely by the MSNS show at Thanksgiving.
Never been to FUN. I have been to several ANA shows.
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
From what I hear......Winter FUN!!
Sometimes, it’s better to be LUCKY than good. 🍀 🍺👍

Winter fun is really that hip huh. I've only stuck to West coast shows so far
200 miles isn't far, so I'd say winter FUN. I'm up for cross country if necessary, I like to travel to areas I've never been for a coinshow. Like Denver, New Orleans, Greenville, and of course Las Vegas etc.
It's not over 200 miles from home, but I would choose any of the Long Beach shows. Always consistent. Always good.
Gee looks almost unanimous here. Fun show for me also. Any of the Baltimore shows is next, although not over 200 miles from me .

The Fun starts in about 10 days. Hope to see you there.

Missing FUN by 3 days in South Florida this year. Shucks

Winter FUN, followed closely by the Long Beach and PCGS Vegas collector club shows. The ANA Money shows have been good too.

The FUN show is not just another major show....it is better and has more dealers and thus more coins. That is why it would be my choice.
Exactly
ANA followed by FUN. I have been to every ANA since 1970 and have only missed 3 FUN shows since 1973.
My location and commitments now limit me to one show per year. I choose summer ANA
Long Beach is the closest to me and is the only major show I attend.
Seems like the dealers bring the same coins to all shows.
Never been to Winter FUN. Sounds like I should go.
Love the World's Fair of Money w all of the different world mints, displays, etc
I have to say Baltimore Fall show... I've yet to miss one. Can't include FUN yet, because I've never been, but I'm about to find out just what all the FUN is about.
Easily the best show is the Winter FUN Show. Next? Probably Spring Baltimore followed by Summer ANA. Honorable mentions go to Winter Baltimore, Spring ANA (It's in Orlando this year! Should be best Spring ANA in years!), and Central States.
the winter fun show
Winter FUN is awesome!
