  There are at least half a dozen lots within two blocks of the BCC entrance to the coin convention. Any are acceptable. It makes a difference how you are planning to come in to Baltimore.

  PNG member, numismatic dealer since 1965. Operates a retail store, also has exhibited at over 1000 shows.
  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 am traveling south on I-95. Any suggestions for an easily accessible parking lot would be appreciated.

  I would try the light rail. Parking is free, and a round trip fare is three bucks and change IIRC. If you're heading from the south the trip isn't that long. Not sure about from the north; I've never done that. Might not be a good idea if you're a dealer with a suitcase or two full of coins, or are attending an auction ending at midnight.

  Don't have any specific place to recommend, but here is a link to a map showing parking areas (2.4MB PDF), you will be coming in on I-395 which is just to the left of the red "South Baltimore" circle in the lower left, then continuing north on Howard St. The convention center is only a couple of intersections away once you are on Howard St.

  New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

  If you are carrying coins or anything of value, the best place to park is close to the show. I park at the Days-In parking garage (Howard & Pratt)
