For those who have gone, how are the ancient pickings at the FUN show? Any dealer recommendations? Is it worth it to go if you collect ancients and medieval coins? I won't be able to go this year (and I only live just a few hours away too ) and I'm trying to make it next year, but I was wondering how the experience is like there for those that collect ancients. Thanks!
I've gone only once, two years ago. A decent selection of dealers with Ancients and dealers who only deal in Ancients. I found it great. Just to be able to handle all these coins that you only dream about. I think I ended up purchasing only three or four, but it could have easily been 3-400.
Bing, I remember that (it was more than two years ago, my friend) ... didn't you go and rub *stevex6 edit* with the CCF members? eecchhh
Yes, this is my frustration with shows. It's one thing to browse online listings, another to actually handle coins all day long. It makes you wish you had ten grand in your pocket.
hmmm? ... well, it may have been? (but if it was, then it was in the same month that you bailed on those mates) => hey, I like you and I hate talkin' about that whole thing (it was amazingly soooo unnecessary) ... let's just move-on
You're right. We need to move on to better times here at CT. But one last word. I believe it was the same month as the FUN show. Cheers Little Brother.
Sounds like a good show for us ancient darksiders then. I'm really going to try and make it one of these years and hopefully meet one or more of you guys there.
