Just a heads-up that the Texas Numismatic Association annual show is coming up! If you live in North Texas, or further afield, the show will be in Fort Worth on May 15-17. Link

    A buddy and I are coming in from Dallas on Friday the 15th. I'm looking forward to the Daniel Carr/Moonlight Mint presentation.

    No, it rotates through various Texas cities.

    It has been in Arlington, TX for about a decade, then when the facility closed down, they did two years in Conroe (about 1h outside of Houston) and now we're back in the DFW metroplex.

    I believe the Will Rogers Center will be the venue for the next few years, but I haven't heard the dates yet.

    I went to the TNA show on Friday and thought I'd share a few observations.

    It's only the third coin show I've been to, but it seemed well-organized and well-run. Parking was $15, entrance was $5, so not too bad on the wallet. I didn't count the number of dealer tables, but I'd put the number at about 60.

    There seemed to be a lot of high quality material at the show, particularly Morgans. PCGS and ANACS were there too, accepting submissions. The line at PCGS was long and didn't abate while I was there.

    There were a couple tables selling ancient coins, and one dealer selling Australian coins. But primarily it was a "USA coins" show. So if you are looking for non-USA items, particularly specific items, it might not be the show for you.

    There was a dealer selling USA gold commemoratives at spot, so I bought a 1987-W Constitution commemorative (image below). That's not really in my collecting space, but I like Constitution-related coinage.

    I finally saw one of the new 2026 SemiQ dimes. There was a dealer selling them for $1 each. I bought one for a nephew. It's a really nice looking coin.

    Today (Sunday) is the last day of the show. If you are in the area, give the show a try!

    I was there on Saturday and agree with your observations. I’m not sure what the dealer from Australia was selling, but there seemed to a constant stream of people at his table.

    Great show!

    Next year: June 11-13, 2027 -- same bat channel

    The Amon L. Carter, Jr. Event Center at the Will Rogers Memorial Center is, aside from the absurd parking, a nice facility. Decent lighting (important for a coin show -- if you remember the old Lockheed Martin "gym", you know what I'm talking about).

    What/where are the nearest hotels to the Center?

    I wanted to go to the show this year, but couldn't find any hotels within a reasonable distance.

    Define reasonable... There are hotels in the Cultural District/University Drive and downtown. All are a 10-15 minute drive.

    If you mean walkable? Nope. Google shows just 4 within 1/2 mile (ish - those routes don't always have sidewalks).
