    Forgot to mention that this was Sunday morning before the bourse opened.

    I've got a super hi-res image of it that is 12MB, but I thought some people might not appreciate the file size or the fact that you can tell who people are at least half way down the isles.

    Is that a concrete floor?

    I'm going to guess the undisclosed location would be dangling from the ceiling? image

    Great shot.

    I can see my table quite well. Nobody is there because we all left the day before.

    That is a concrete floor.

    Add hundreds of people to the mix, and I can understand why I had trouble remembering where certain coins were the day before!

    And yes it's a concrete floor, which is why I wear my cross trainer tennies, even with dress slacks and an Oxford shirt.

    What I like about the picture is the nice wide aisles, good lighting and capacious area behind the tables. Nothing worse than a poorly lit room with tight aisles that make you have to smell all the unbathed examples of humanity.

    I've met you at a couple shows. A lanyard, with the name "Greg", which is all that's legible, still holds my keys.
    I should have used it for a loupe, and as a B&M shop owner, I have to thank you & all the stalwarts who do the shows.

    Practice makes perfect & nobody is perfect. So, practice being nobody.

    It is a large bourse. The smart shoppers that I saw had their lists and were making notes on where they saw coins.

    Taken from the Heritage Legacy Room I suspect.
