<< <i>Don't count on this show being a blockbuster...according to many dealers who set up (or used to set up there) this show typically awful. >>
But we will get a chance to look at some shiny scrubbed bust half dollars and other delights.
And maybe myqqy will bring his pure white varmit with his black bow tie. That would be worth the trip. Besides the Holiday Inn has an indoor heated swimming pool and the IRS will let me deduct all of these pleasures from my 2007 income tax.
I would love to bring muchacho..... alas, he is an angelic white varmit now...

My condolences. A friend forever I see by his happy face.
I can bring my camera if you want me to take a few shots of you around the pool. Be sure to bring your Speedo and your green Afro. Sure would make a nice CU icon.

Rock & roll - I'm on my way. Up in the mornin off to school - don't break the golden rule.
Look for the guy with the purple hair wearing a tin hat.
Have fun guys.

Thanks Rick.
Neither one of us met any CU members at the show because we did not know how to make contact. BigEng was not at a table so he could not act as CU member coordinator.
cladmaker has the first table on the left as you look into the ballroom. I think he wanted first sightings on the ladies as they entered the ballroom. Business is getting very competitive; one dealer had not one, but two nice looking young ladies sitting behind his table. Kenny, from Blue Moon, was not walking the bourse floor today, maybe tomorrow. Blue Moon's office is ten minutes from the coin show location.
Division Street Coin had an extensive inventory of encapsulated collector coins, mostly newly submitted ICG. A Texas dealer had only encapsulated inventory. Most else at this show was raw coins.
How about a raw Hawaiian Classic Commemorative? It had a bit of cleaning, but then, it is counterfeit anyway. First one I have held in hand. Have no idea what it is worth, since it was produced to deceive collectors, never intended to be used in merchant trade. Bet the US Treasury department would grab this one.
