I will be there part of Wednesday and Thursday, hope to see some of y'all there. just be prepared for cooler (15 to 20 degrees below average) than normal temps here the next few days, especially at night. At least the sun will be out, so that will help!

    Planning on it. :smiley: Life & work have been a scheduling disaster recently.... ANA didn't work, Baltimore didn't work, Long Beach - same thing. This time I'm just going to hope this works out. Tickets are in-hand. Would love to do FUN, but that isn't happening this year either.

    My coins will be there for grading.

    I'll be at the grapevine show on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. You should swing up that way from San Antonio as well!

    I will be there Wed to Fri morning. My Father is flying in to join me......when I was a boy, he would take me to coin shows, now I take him!

    First time in San Antonio, looking forward to seeing the town.

    Collecting since 1976.

    OMG! Seth is going? I will have to sit home and dram about him!!! Ugh.

    I can't make this one (some health issues). George will be there for legend as will the entire auction staff!

    I was considering going (3 hour drive) but I couldn't find out much about the show. I had read there may only be 20 to 25 dealers so that is just not worth my time. That may be bad info on show size....

    This is accurate, our San Antonio Members Only Show is sold out with 25 dealers. While this may sound like a low number in comparison to other shows, these are the top dealers in the industry who are joining us in an intimate setting where collectors and dealers alike can sit down for one on one conversations, share catered meals courtesy of PCGS and work on building both collections and connections.

    I hope to see you all there :)

    Where can I find the dealer list? I may still be able to make it on Thursday.

    Thanks. ;)

    @CCGGG It's worth your while, especially if you want talk coins among the coin geeks. Sure it's a small show, but you can see all kinds of inventory, including the Legend auction coins.

    A note about our current weather: what you will experience will be about 20 to 25 degrees below normal early on, but it should remain sunny until Saturday with a warming trend. Take the time to walk around downtown if you get a chance, and visit the basement of the Alamo! 😆😉

    PCGS claims that is confidential information and will not share.

    Some refer to overgraded slabs as Coffins. I like to think of them as Happy Coins.

    Seriously???? A show where the dealer list is confidential?

    Yes. I don't understand it, perhaps PCGS will eventually explain. They advertise these shows and encourage PCGS members to go, but they will not publicize the dealers in attendance. I nearly cancelled my trip to the Philadelphia show as a result, but ended up going anyway. It is bizarre. I think they need to rethink this one.

    I'm hoping to be there tomorrow, as I have some coins I've wanted to get graded for a while now.
