Anyone going to Denver in August?

I've been mulling over whether to attend the ANA show at the convention center in Denver, Aug. 1-5. It's a long drive from Eastern Oregon, but shows in the West don't come around that often, so I'm leaning towards making the trek.

Is anyone else planning to attend? It would be great to meet some of the forum members who I've never met in person.

I figure i better go. Might be the only time I can since i live about an hour north of Denver. Will only be able to go Saturday though due to work.

 

Almost sounds like a Zevon song

 

I am going.

 

I have never been to a coin show. What are they like? If it sounds fun I might attend it.

 

This is the largest coin show in the world. There will be plenty of paper money there also. The exhibits alone make it worthwhile going.

 

They are very fun. Not only do you get to buy nice coins, you can talk with the dealers (the especially love young numistmatists), you can participate in raffles, I think ANACS may have a free submission this time too. There are rows and rows of booths with coins layed out. It really is fun plus its free for ANA members. Some coin shows are free and anyone can go.

 

Does this one cost money to go to if your not an ANA member?

 

A mere $8 will get you in the door......good luck getting out without spending anything.

 

Here's a shot from the 2015 ANA show in Portland, just to give you an idea...

 

FYI,
You can save $2 with coupon from ANA website off the $8 admission

Yes, I am going.

 

I'll bump this back up to see if anyone else has decided to attend. Looks like I'll be there for sure. I'm making it a camp-out road trip!

 

I'm going today and I'm excited!

 

I went on Wednesday and will go tomorrow.

 

I've been at the show off and on for most of the week. The Mint and Bureau of Engraving are here and I spent a good deal of time chatting with Mike Beck, the guy doing demonstration printing on the spider press. He even pulled a nice little print of the Capitol, engraved in 1870!

 

What time tomorrow? I think I'm going again!

 

I went today and will go tomorrow as well. @NNL do the YN Treasure Trivia in the Kids Zone, you get some really neat prizes and dealers give you prizes themselves.
