    I've decided to go this year, a bit of a drive (4 hours) but what convinced me is that there is a micro brewpub just down the street and the hotel I booked (HI) is walking distance. Anyone else go to this show?

    I'm waiting till the summer - gotta set aside some funds. No fun going to a show if you can't shop.

    I do all three Baltimore shows every year. The summer show is by far the weakest of the three in terms of attendance and material.

    Really? Well, I don't have much of a choice. I'm swamped with work until June. Do you set up a shop at the show? I'd like to patronize some CT members.

    I'm on a table with Numismatic Americana, but I spend nearly all of my time walking from dealer-to-dealer looking to purchase coins or to sell coins.

    I plan on making the drive. It's about 10 hours for me. Just mailed my application to exhibit my two cent sets as well.

    I will hopefully be able to go. It's only 20 miles north of me so I really have no excuse not to go. I wasn't able to go to the last one. This will be my first show.

    I'll bet you're not too far from my daughters house in Severna Park.

    After 4 years in a row of attending FUN I couldnt muster the interest and ended up skipping it this year. I didn't think I would miss it but I did, especially after reading all the reviews here! A friend an I decided that hitting the Baltimore show would be doable, and since I've never been to this show, I am looking forward to a new venue and city. I'm sure all the usual suspects will be at the show and I look forward to seeing them again. See ya there!

    I'm going! Can't wait! About 5 to 6 hours for me. Looking to buy U.S. type coins.

    I'll be going too... I try to hit all the Baltimore shows if I can. Always a good time with plenty of good material to choose from.

    The Baltimore shows are generally far better than the Philly shows.

    You're right Tom, but the Philly shows are good too...and a lot closer to home.
