    Hello, all!

    I know this is a bit late, but I was in New York for quite a long time (nine days) which meant I had a lot of catching up to do when I got back.

    I just managed to complete my write up of the PNG's New York Coin Show ... have a read! :)

    Nice report Amanda-thank you.

    I haven't been to NYC since 1980. Did the cab drivers ever figure out that the sidewalks were for pedestrians? :p

    The subway is the only way to go. I've driven in Manhattan. I don't recommend it.

    Great write up! What did you think of ONCE? My wife and I went and seen that a few weeks back, we both enjoyed it.

    So as far as your coins, all I see is PCGS. Just wondering if there was a reason there wasn't any NGC slabs? Do your customers require PCGS coins?

    I'm afraid not ... Mal will be there for all of 36 hours to close a few deals and meet a few people, but we don't generally take a table at Baltimore (don't ask me why). :(

    Huh, I must have lost some pictures ... It totally depends upon who sets up the cases at the shows. I like to put coins out in denomination-date-grade regardless of TPG; Mal always separates the coins by TPG first, then does denomination-date. I didn't even notice all the pics of the NGC case weren't there. :oops:

    I'm going to go ahead and blame my sister and the vacation we tacked onto the end of the show. ;)
