Unofficial Dentuck Baltimore Report
UNOFFICIAL BALTIMORE SHOW REPORT I was in Baltimore most of last week for the Whitman convention. Here are some reflections. Wednesday: In Which Dinner is Served and Tales are Told Wednesday afternoon was the usual blur of travel, with nothing strange or exotic to report, other than an unusually chatty cab driver from the… -
First I find a treasure, then I do the right thing and call the fBI...
I don't go looking for treasure and I'm sure I will never find any treasure. But if I did, you can be sure the first think I would do is call the government so that they can take care of it and disperse it fairly and honestly. Yep, that's the first thing I will do... DENTS RUN, Pa. — Surrounded by dozens of stone-faced FBI… -
Charmy's September 2014 LONG BEACH SHOW REPORT w/lots of Pics!!

It’s time once again for my favorite coin show – the Long Beach Coin and Collectible Show! It’s usually one of my better shows since I have a lot of regular customers in Southern California.

Re: Bad Weather

The… -
Re: what is wrong with moderns!

Oh I think "moderns" will ....stay. I just think that the madness to get the numeral "70" on em will dwindle. They are pretty, available, and most commemorate historic events. And they have matured to the point where a comprehensive collection of them....even in the lowly mint packaging..... would form quite a nice… -
Re: Monthly investment programs
There are quite a few specialty dealers and dealers who specialize in high-end goods who have "collection building" programs which can have benefits for some collectors.
