<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2422834, member: 1892&quot;]There will be a *lot* of small fish in the pond; you&#039;ll go unnoticed. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>And your budget is twice what I brought to the last Baltimore show. Go early - Thursday or Friday - if you want to see everyone there; I went Saturday and 15-20% of the dealers were already gone (hey, that may be a way of weeding out the ones you didn&#039;t want to see anyways....). <b>See every table before you purchase anything</b>. Don&#039;t miss the tables which apparently specialize in completely unrelated stuff; there are gems to be had from folks dealing out of their specialization. Not to mention it exposes you to things you haven&#039;t seen before, and may like - that&#039;s one of the advantages of bigger shows. You can handle stuff you&#039;ve never held before, and the opportunity for learning is vast. </p><p><br /></p><p>True coin geeks carry a loupe at all times. I wouldn&#039;t walk out the house without a loupe any more than leaving my keys. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
