ANA's World's Fair of Money

I keep checking the ANA's web site and still no schedule of events. I hope the ANA realizes some people do work and must ask off from work and others just make plans to go to the show.

    The only thing I know at the moment is that the Sundman Lecture Series runs on Wednesday from 10 AM to around 4 PM.

    Maybe they'll post the schedule after the "convention" is over....That will avoid errors.

    May the ANA czars think of you at the next promotion of your numismatic endeavors.

    I’m looking forward to it in Philadelphia. My old high school friend lives in Lititz, PA and is joining me for the trip. Reading Market is great for food and activity. Lots of history there and I like the feel of the ANA show every year.

    Lol!

    To answer the OP - looks at last year's schedule. Many of the events are held on the same day (of the week) each year.

    @FunwithMPL Is this the show you are talking about?

    I was talking to my wife and was thinking of going during our vacation. Are these usually well attended by dealers and collectors?

    Alas I gotta be in Beantown that week so will miss it for the first year in many. OTH, maybe I can catch a Red Sox game at Fenway if they are playing in town that week. No coin for me.

    It's one of the two best-attended shows of the year, and usually has the best side events, as well as some pretty interesting stuff on display.

    Let's have plenty of show reports to satisfy the voyeuristic needs of those who cannot attend... ;) Cheers, RickO

    Table draw for dealers is quite soon in 7-10 days so the schedule should be coming together soon thereafter.
