The Gettysburg show announcements seem to indicate they expect over 100 dealers. Is that true for the Thanksgiving show? I'll likely be in the...
There's a thread for that! :)
Did you mean to include a picture or a link? Welcome to CoinTalk! (Edit: odd, my notifications tell me there was a new post here just a few...
