<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Penny Lady®, post: 2319428, member: 16948&quot;]Set up wasn’t until 3pm, so after my meeting, I went in to the Heritage Auction Lot Viewing room.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2016%2001%20FUN%20Show/IMG_4473_zpsb4facmhf.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Then I registered and got my picture taken for the new 2-sided badges.&nbsp;

I found this beautiful 1863 toned Indian cent - it’s very hard to find toned copper nickel Indian cents and I was very happy to snatch this one for my personal set!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2016%2001%20FUN%20Show/1863%20large_zpss66xgqcl.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Then it was time for my PNG lunch meeting back at the convention center.&nbsp; We listened to details about a new PNG precious metals sub-group, as well as information from an eBay representative on changes eBay has made to their coin and paper money category, as well as updates on changes and potential new laws in various states that affect the coin market.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2016%2001%20FUN%20Show/IMG_4491_zpsknfexoyj.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2016%2001%20FUN%20Show/IMG_4492_zpsuzpyrena.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2016%2001%20FUN%20Show/IMG_4493_zpsg2tx6ksu.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Soon it was time for the bourse to open to dealers, so I went to security, grabbed my bags, and waited in line along with all the other dealers eagerly to get in.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2016%2001%20FUN%20Show/IMG_4494_zpsmg5xyrth.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>As usual, during set up day, I often do most of my buying.&nbsp;
