is this a "good" show? Does Chicago get any good shows?

 

When and where is the show? I know it's in Rosemont, but where? Is there an admission?

 

Mid-America Coin Expo

I've been going to this show for years. It is by far the best show in the Midwest, and is well worth attending. The cost is $5 (Free on Sunday, but few vendors stick around that long). There is an auction every year, and there are over 100 vendors from all over the country, including the big names that you see advertising in CoinWorld or CoinAge.

The show this year starts on Thursday, June 23rd through Sunday, June 26th.

Most of the grading services are there. PCGS and ANACS are almost always present, and sometimes the others are there too. Can't remember if they slab on site, sorry.

Thank you! That is what I was hoping to hear.

 

I'll be there in the morning. I've checked out this show for the past three years, and have often seen the major dealers leave early Saturday afternoon. Still, I've always found enough goodies from the many local dealers who stay for the duration.

Parking is $11 and a long walk from the bourse, and traffic near O'Hare airport is always congested. Admission is $5. Still, it's always been worth it for me.

This year NCG will be there, but I don'r see PCGS, ANACS, or SEGS, on the roster of this year's boothholders, although they have been there in recent years.
