OH NO. Not another one! This is the MidAmerica Coin Expo that is usually held at the Rosemont Convention Center. No in Schaumburg? I wonder why. In Rosemont it was always $5 to get in and $11 to park. Wonder how much the parking will be in Schaumburg. Not for me. To far to drive for a show advertised as 175 dealers. Wonder what happened. In Rosemont they used to get several hundred dealers. Way to expensive for coins at this show in the past. I used to like the Rosemont one due to being about 5 miles from there.
Now the big thing is will there still be a coin show at Countryside, Il on the 13th of July. Nothing like conflicting coin shows. Countryside, Il shows always have close to 100 dealers but if on the same day as this one I'll just stay home.
We normally have a coin show on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd Sundays of every Month and all withing about 15 miles so driving out to Schaumburg is just to far when your as old as me. Of course with the price of gasoline, it would probably be a small fortune to drive there.

 

yea they moved it for some reason there were complaints from a few dealers last time around not only has the location moved but also the date i think unless i mixed that with the CICF. i would not be going but there are a few forum members going so i thought i would go. but you are right i didnt get anything other than a silver dollar last time i was there and this time i dont think i will get that either

 

sorry spock, just to clarify

Thursday is the best day to go, correct?

 

yes but at 75$ is expensive otherwise get there Friday morning at 10am for $5

 

huh? what's $75?
edit---
I see it now
that's ridiculous, I guess I am going Friday then

 

What time Friday ? I'm in . Spock still 1:00 PM
rzage

 

yup still 1:00 pm

 

I will be there soon after it opens and stay for however long I can
