Thanks, everyone ! Happy Thanksgiving to all ! May you have a wonderful day with the fam.
Are you talking about the Money Show of the Southwest December 2-4 ? We are definitely in ! Since that's my home turf, I can show ya around town....

No, he said "always pay close attention". All agree it is best to see a coin first. However, many, many coins are sold without the buyer seeing...
