Re: Which are the closest hotels to the Baltimore show?
One of the dealers I spoke with at the last show told me he stays in Laurel (my home town). From North Laurel, it's about 20 minutes South of the Inner Harbor/Convention Center. A straight drive up 95. There are a ton of hotels and motels on Rt.1 (Washington Blvd) which is parallel and about 1/2 mile from Rt. 95. By North… -
FUN Show Report
This was my 3rd FUN show and I came from Weds through Saturday. We were happy to leave the 9 degree temp and 1 foot morning snowfall. My dad came along as my “super secret buyer” and we split up to cover ground right out of the gate. He would text me constantly table numbers with coins of interest. The primary focus: Early… -
Coin show report - Pelham, Alabama
Since the dealers in my area that I normally go to did not have any silver art bars (or .999 generic silver for that matter), I decided, at the last minute, to go on a road trip to attend a coin show in Alabama. This coin show was in a place called Pelham about 10 miles(?) south of Birmingham, Alabama (about a 2 1/2-hour… -

Re: It's hard to pull the trigger on ASE's and Maples when you can find generics at these prices.

The penalty for counterfeiting ASEs is more severe than making fake silver rounds or bars so regular… -
Re: I wish PSA would summarize a card's flaws
<< <i>Mike, I can look at a card for 30-45 seconds and form a decent opinion about a card's condition (i.e. this looks like a "7" to me), but I doubt I could give it the type definitively accurate grade that everyone else would agree with (and that you are supposed to be getting from a grading company). Especially when one… -
Re: Front Cover of Numi News-ICG Ranked #1
I'm not crazy about the ICG ad either. I don't like any ads where competitors "compare" themselves to each other. That kind of advertising, with any product or service, has always left me a little cold. It's too contentious. I have found ICG grading to be pretty good on Early and Classic material. I do not collect… -
