Toronto Coin Expo review

Snuck away from work to attend this show. Between the 30 or so dealers I was able to find 4 colonial portrait 8 Reales. All raw with problems and priced at premium prices. When I asked one of the dealers from Buffalo why their 1807 Mexico City covered in verdigris was $200 USD, was told it must be one of the rarer dates.

Good reminder why I stopped attending Canadian shows :)

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk. :smiley:

    Even though I live only 16 miles away, I haven't been to an Expo in nearly 10 years when it was taken over by the original owner's son. It was never the same once they switched auctioneers by him. All the feedback that I've gotten from friends is that I haven't missed much

    Roman, do you remember the Buffalo dealer? You can PM me if you want to.

    I really don't. I remember his table location, but not the name.
