Hello everybody, I am a Spanish coin collector. I will travel for tourism to New York in September. First thing, of course, I'm looking for flight prices and a cheap room / flat / hotel. I hope I will have no problem with this. Second (this is where you may help me), of course, I would look for any kind of numismatic resource. For example : - Some numismatic museum (AFAIK there is none in NYC) - Some cheap coin dealer / shop where I could buy the BU set for this year. - Some bank / place where I could get some uncirculated coins for this year. For example one presidential $1 roll, one quarters roll, etc. - Any other thing that could be interesting for a coin collector. Feel free either to post your comments here or send a PM to me Thanks in advance.

Great! Thank you, mrbrklyn! That's a lot of good stuff to begin with I have already located that dealer on Google maps. It's quite likely that I'll have a look there. Anyway, (and take into account that I don't know much about this) I suppose I can't go to the federal reserve and ask for some rolls of uncirculated coins. I suppose I should go to some bank and ask for rolls, and hope that some are uncirculated coins. But I don't know if any bank would be appropriate for this. Could you tell me an example of a bank / address to go? I'll tell you when I finish reading all that information on the web. :thumb: Thanks again!
Sorry for this second post but, could you tell me whether it is easy to get those rolls? By the way, I'm trying to hire a little studio / flat in Manhattan for 8-9 days. Any interesting website? You may PM me if you don't want to put the address here. Thanks again.
