Nyc coin show

Okay I hit the NYC Coin show today, I was only there for about an hour or so.

#1: IMPORTANT: $10 admission unless you stop at their web site, I'll add link below, and print out a $5 discount coupon.

[add web site].

So, some outstanding stuff there.

As I remember it is all on the 19th floor, but:
Be sure to hit all areas.
After registration, walk straight ahead, two rooms, one on right, one straight ahead.

Then as you walk out, past registration, one to the left:
for supplies, and other stuff.

Also, one to the right: Note: PCGS & NGC are there, be sure to ask for any info, I aslo got a samlpe slab from each: PCGS: 2005 Buffalo 5 Cent; NGC: an NCS: 1870 Ceylon 1/2 c, marked genuine and "SAmple". Also, I got a slab box from NGC, and PCGS gave out some literature. PCGS has some boxes, but they won't begiven out until the end of the show on Sunday, unless you beg & plead. (It didn't work for me.)

I also got a couple of auction catalogues, and one for currency, all at no charge, but the currency one ya had to fill out a form with your name & address, etc. The Currency auction was from H.R. Harmer, and is 550 pages! (heavy, bring a valise to carry all of your stuff.)

Also: Munismatic News & Coin World there, right after the registration. Many handouts, magazines & newspapers.

Have Fun!

So tell us what you bought.

Viper:
Well the show was pretyy much exclusive for ancients & foreign, so I bought:
Nada.

Nil.

Zip.

Not a darn thing.

However, I went there to see Charlie Davis, a book dealer, who specializes in old and antiquarian books on numismatics.

He is doing an auction at the show.

If you get a chance, you should stop at his display.

Great stuff.

Oh, and we discussed my book, he was a contributor.
