    In the spirit of meeting other CoinTalkers, I'd like to invite anyone who will be attending "the nation's largest coin convention"

    http://www.funtopics.com/Fun_Shows/FUNshow.html

    to post here so we can arrange a time to meet and say hello to each other!

    So far, we have the following members who will be in attendance:

    Catbert
    FreakyGarrett
    Mr. Coin Lover

    If you are going, please post here and indicate if you have a preferred day to meet (thus far, I think Saturday is the plan). I will PM everyone to coordinate a meeting time and place.

    I hope to see you at FUN!

    I was able to weasel out of this one. PTL! Being on the other side of the table at one of these huge shows is strictly work, and long hours of it at that, and you don't get to see the wife and kids, and oh yeah, you have to work all weekend long just to have to be back in the office first thing Monday morning.

    I love coin shows, but a break every once in a while is truly appreciated.

    Hey peoples, I am preparing for F.U.N. and need some cherrypicking tips. I only have the volume 2 because the book store doesn't have volume 1.
    Does anyone know of any that are fairly easy to find? And cherrypicking tips in general.

    Beau coin collect - your Private Message option is not turned on so I could not share our plans with you.
