Schertz, TX coin show report

This is a quarterly one day show that has made a comeback over the past several months. This show was well attended, more so in the beginning. There were quite a few young people in attendance, filling albums and chasing down what they thought were cool coins. There is plenty of space in the venue, and quite a few people were wearing masks.
I was there to chase down some coins for the empty spots in my Library of Coins albums along with upgrades, and I was successful at this show. This might be the first time in a while that I didn't add a single slabbed coin to my collection. From what I could tell, type and series collecting was strong, along with Mexican and Philippines coinage. Bullion seemed to be pretty blah, unless it was in coin form. Overall a good coin show day, and no wines wee consumed. The bourbon and Coke came later!
Always take a picture of the sign.
The bourse floor.
The new additions. The 1955 nickel has pretty neat rainbow rim toning. 
1955 nickel. The "spot" on the second photo is part of the holder, not on the coin.
There is an actual space for the 1942/1 in the Library of Coins album! Does anyone here now about how many were minted?
This was my main purchase, a decent looking 1942/1 which I graded VF to XF:

Thanks for your report.
Glad the show was good. Congrats on your pick ups. I used to have family in Schertz. Really liked visiting. Never got to the coin show.
Neat coins.
Early date problem-free Walkers are always a pleasure.

I hope our local coin club show that is normally held in dec remains in play. It will be 2 years since we last had one here.
Nice report!! I like the newps always nice 2 see problem free coins with eye appeal!! That 42/1 merc fits your album perfectly!!
All good stuff 🙂
Thanks for an interesting report and pictures... Looks like a nice local show. Used to really enjoy those small shows when I lived in WA state. Cheers, RickO
I like the '55 nickel and the overdate dime.
What! No pics of the bourbon
Very cool but still a 3 hour tour for me.
There is a show in Houston coming up next month I may hit.
