    Ok.... Here's my show report.

    Got there at 9am on the dot. I assume some dealers went home after Thursday & Friday as there were a number of empty tables. What was there was a large variety of nice inventory. If you're into currency there were a couple of currency dealers with beautiful material, graded and raw. I was tempted to buy a $500 note just because..... but I stayed focused on coins.

    In the end I didn't find anything on my want list and I wound up only buying a couple of green PCGS boxes, LOL....

    The gem I got from the show was getting to speak with some of the dealers, all of whom were super nice and liked to chat. I met Wayne Herndon, who's name I've known for ages. Great guy. I enjoyed chatting with him for a bit. I was delighted to hear the Intercept Shield track style box for PCGS/NGC size slabs is making a comeback in a month or so! I'm a fan of their protective technology.

    Sorry.... I didn't get a pic of my Nova Lox Bagel from Manhattan Bagel. I know we're all used to the cuisine that goes with coin shows.

    Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

    Thanks for the report. I realize it was the last day of the show, but did you notice any movement in the bullion arena? Present dip in prices should be sparking some activity. Cheers, RickO
