Upcoming Atlanta Show - I can only attend it on Sunday. Is it worth it?

I would love to go on Saturday, but work calls. Will there still be a good selection/representation on Sunday?

    ANA rules state that dealers may not leave before Sunday without facing a penalty. That being said, most of the hot shot dealers leave early anyway. You will still find plenty of wannabe dealers (we are at table 738) at the show on Sunday, so I say it is indeed worth your time to go on Sunday.

    I will be there on Sunday, as well, until 2P. Please stop by and say hello.

    I firmly believe in numismatics as the world's greatest hobby, but recognize that this is a luxury and without collectors, we can all spend/melt our collections/inventories.

    I'm going to Atlanta. It's my very first Coin Show. I'll be there Friday and Saturday. Hope to catch a couple of the classes while I'm there. Has anyone taken the ALL-DAY Coin Grading class? If so, is it worth all that time?

    thanks for the information.

    I spent too many days and nights at the hotel adjacent to the galleria. it was home office to my old company and the boss did not like to stray too far.

    will bring back memories -- good and not so good

    In answer to your question:

    Probably not. ANA rules or not, it's pathetic what Sundays are like in comparison to earlier days in the show.
    When in doubt, don't.

    After being on the road for weeks at a time....ANA will complete 9 straight weekends of shows for me.....yes dealers do leave a bit early....that being said.....this is a chicken and egg situation....if shows had good turnouts on Sunday...more dealers would stay.....the ones that do stay are there to do business.....in answer to your question....even if half the dealers are there it is still worth coming in....I would suggest that you get there bright and early since by midday dealers will start packing up........many dealers will for the sake of a few more sales offer some good bargain pricing and sometimes because it is not as busy may have more time to chat.....so yes....do stop in on Sun...hope to see you, please stop by our table!

    Most of the bourse table dealers are mandated to stay until Sunday afternoon, so attending on Sunday morning may be okay.
