Any collectors in Wisconsin here? I live near Madison and all the dealers kinda blow, very disappointing compared to the two dealers I went to down south (no bid boards, very little selection, mostly bullion and supplies or jewelry). The antique stores are a rip-off. Guess that just leaves ebay and coin shows. Any good shops near by that yall can recommend? Any good mail-order coin dealers?
....found these listings from another forum. http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=26&threadid=661823
I've always found Wisconsin is a poor area for finding anything in coinage. Some time ago I attempted to find old coins up in the area near Medford / Abbotsford / Spencer , Dorchester, etc. Found out someone already went through the entire area asking the same thing. Since I was married in that area I figured I could try all the farms and come up with something really good in coins but absolutely nothing. However, I did find a great gun shop in Medford. Usually going through some of the more remote areas I always thought I'd come up with something up there but not even in the more remote areas up and down route 13. My Son went to the U of W at Stevens Point and there too, nothing. Move to Illinois. Coin shows every weekend almost.
