Hey all. theres a coin show in edmonton alberta, 75 tables, and quite a few from the states. If any one from here is going, send me a p.m. and maybe we can meet up. p.s. this is my first coin show, im pretty psyched! its on November 8th and 9th
Well, Day one is over. It phenomenal. I've met so many dealers, from so many places. not to mention YN's. I was impressed with how many YN's and girl collectors there were today. I managed to pick up a high end 16 D and a low grade 31 S this morning.. early bird gets the worm. Tomorrow Im going to be helping out my BOSS at his table! It's going to be very exciting to be on the other side of the table. It's been a little upsetting because the coins out there are probably 95% canadian. The lincolns I found were at the only table with American cents, and the Indian was from My Dealers table. I signed up for a local numismatic association today, so... that's pretty cool too. haha I grabbed an AU 1864 no "L" Indian cent and the Lincolns I mentioned before. And also grabbed one more canadian small cent to put my set at 97% complete. can't wait to do it all over again tommorrow! Shawn
Sounds like your having a blast. I LOVE coin shows, they are a great way to spend a day, or better, a weekend !!
You should see the 16 D jack, its almost submittable. Its so crisp, as soon as I told the guy I was gonna buy it he looked at it, and his eyes went big, and he was like..."you're gonna have to pay the full ask price for this one" which I had no problem with pics when I get home.. IMO EASILY a 64
