One more reminder before the big show!

I got to check it out last year and it's safe to say this is the biggest coin show of the year for this region.

I'd be spending a lot more, but sudden car A/C issues dont lend themselves to reasonable prices

Saturday, I'll be looking for a nice AU 38-d walker or a xf/au 31-s lincoln.

I intend to be there Saturday morning...

smallchange · June 9, 2011 11:03PM

I will be there also. I will be on the lookout for some early Walkers and my wife will be on the hunt for some "pretty" gold. I also want to see what is being auctioned off on Saturday.

Just got back from the show! The crowd seemed very light around noonish on a Saturday. It looked like there were only a couple tables empty today. From what I saw there was a good selection but very little in paper money - most likely due to the show down south this weekend.

I was able to find a nice XF+ 38d for the set and got to view a lot of $20 saints for research on a future purchase.

I also like to listen to the inter-dealer banter and heard a few things. Two guys mentioning to each other that it was not a good show at all for them and they would be happy to leave.

Also, I heard a dealer mentioning to someone that his two holed Feuchtwanger coins would be getting repaired soon. He explained that he supplied the 'repairer' with a 3 cent piece that would plug the hole, then the artist would engrave in the detail over the plug. All for $90 per cost to the dealer. Thought this was interesting.

Silver bullion action seemed nonexistant and I saw a precious few gold transactions.

I had a nice time overall and it was good to see a larger selection in this neck of the woods!

I can't believe Ambro travelled all the way from CT to OH for this show!
