The Whitman coin show

The November Show in Baltimore has been cancelled

HOWEVER they said the show WILL go on only at a different lacation

Where do you think it will be located?

    I have heard Atlanta.
    The spring ANA has been there twice in the last few years.
    I would like that as I live in Birmingham.

    I haven't had confirmation. But my sharing dealer said he received an email a week or so ago that said they were unable to secure a location. Still have my fingers crossed for Atlanta!

    With states and local goverments needing tax money you would think someone would step up and offer Whitman a deal.

    I've been rooting for Atlanta, too, but I just looked at the schedule on the Cobb Galleria website and they've got something else booked for the second weekend of November.

    Is anyone really dying (minimal pun) to go to a convention just to buy coins? I am not the hide in the house type but pointless conventions are near polka night at the retirement home or choir practice at the COVID Ward on my to do list

    I doubt we'll reopen borders to Americans by then.

    Nashville will have to rein in their tax crazy politicians before a major show is held there again! Whitman tried and it was a bust...although the recent flood didn't help. I received a tax bill from the city a few weeks after I attended for more than I sold at the show! While remedied after with a phone call, they are clearly not friendly to vendors!
