I know it's a little early, but anyone planning on going to the NY Invitational at the end of June?

Right now I am planning on attending. I belive it is not a weekend show, but I will be on vacation so it does not matter. Another board member "conveniently" is attending a conference at the Grand Hyatt in NYC during the show, and will be able to "conveniently" drop in (now why didn't I think of that?).

Is there sales tax on coins at that show?

I will have a table at the show and would welcome you to stop by.

Unfortunately, there is sales tax in NY on all coins that are delivered at the show, unless you have a valid resale #.

I will not be attending.

I went last year on Saturday and was disappointed how many dealers had already left. I guess the organizers noticed it, so what did they do? Eliminated Saturday!

I don't work in NYC and based on last year's show, it's not worth it to me to take a weekday off and hassle with NYC commuter traffic.

I will be going on Thursday, the 30th.

When and where is the show? Is there a website i can visit to get this information?

Longacre · May 31, 2005 6:30AM

Here is what I found online. It's right at the Grand Hyatt at Grand Central Terminal, so it is very convenient!

6/29/2005 7/1/2005 New York Invitational Coin Show Grand Hyatt. Park Avenue @ Grand Central Station. New York City. Show Schedule: Wednesday, 6/29: 1 pm - 6 pm (Professional Preview $100). Thursday, 6/30: 10 am - 6 pm. Friday, 7/1: 10 am - 6 pm.

I'll be going with my dad. Most likely on friday 7/1. I'm glad high school ends for the year on 6/28. Any dealers from the boards attending.

NumisOxide · June 25, 2005 2:27PM

Does anyone know if any dealers who carry so-called dollars will be at the show this week?

They didn't invite me.

Maybe the whole "Holey Coin Vest" thing was too freaky for 'em.

Just try wearing that thing on the NYC subway. I dare you!

Be careful if you intend to drive into New York City on June 30th and July 1st.

This is the Thursday and Friday before the July 4th weekend. Traffic going out of the City is going to be !@*&!^&@$!%&*!$@*&$!

I am going to try to take the train if at all possible. Even buses will be awful.

I went last year, but, unfortunately, I don't have the time to go this year.

FYI, last year this was a very high end show - it was great for proof 19th century gold or high relief Saints, but there was almost nothing for the "regular" collector. I would say that the only so-called dollars you might see are slabbed MS-65+ ones.

Also, admission is $10/day (unless you have a discount card).

I know it's a little early, but anyone planning on going to the NY Invitational at the end of June?
