<p>[QUOTE="The Penny Lady®, post: 1095689, member: 16948"]Mat, I'm sorry we didn't get to meet, I was pretty busy today. But sometimes you just need to be a little more persistent and/or patient, event with other collectors since they are usually in a hurry and everyone wants to get the "best deal" for their money. I hope you return, and just flag me down when you stop by so I can be sure to chat, I'm always willing to make time for forum members!</p><p><br /></p><p>And fyi, the band was really good! They did some r&b, and some rock and roll, and even played some old favorites but changed the words to be coin-related - it really was fun, and quite entertaining! Per David Hall, here are the names of the songs they played: </p><p><br /></p><p>Good Dippin' (to the Young Rascals "Good Lovin") Doctor, doctor...all these coins really need is a...Good Dippin'</p><p><br /></p><p>PCGS No Grade Blues...My fours are thress, my fives are AT's</p><p><br /></p><p>and of course, the coin dealer theme song "Money" (Motown Barrett Strong, not Pink Floyd)</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, thank you all for enduring my "bandwith" issues, and I also sincerely apologize for the poor quality of my photos - I don't think it's the phone since some of the photos seem to turn out ok. I really think it's that dang illiterate camera technology, shaky handed clueless button-pusher photographer - aka, ME! I'll try to learn more about my camera phone and do better. </p><p><br /></p><p>So here's the news for today.....</p><p><br /></p><p>It got really busy about 11ish and didn't stop until around 4pm! I didn't do too much buying since I won a ton of great coins in the Goldberg auction, much more than I anticipated. However, I did buy a very cool 1873 S-2 double die - the king of double dies for Indian cents - and I'm thrilled to have it! Todd is taking photos of this newp as well as my Golberg auction coins. A couple of my customers brought me some wonderful bottles of wine, so we definitely enjoyed opening and sharing them with everyone! </p><p><br /></p><p>Several forum members stopped by, and some of them showed me their beautiful newps - I love seeing what all of you have found at the show! Several of you even commented on my pictorial show reports, and I really appreciate knowing that you like seeing photos of the shows I attend (and my after-hours events), even if the photos aren't the best quality! </p><p><br /></p><p>Tonight I treated my "helper" friends to dinner SuperMex with my sweet hubby and boys. It's been sort of a tradition that we meet at my house, have a little Don Julio 1942 sipping tequila (Roger, one of my helpers, also brought me a really nice special tequila sipping glass), then head to SuperMex which is not far from my house. Their food is pretty yummy yet inexpensive, and it's nice to be able to just kick back, relax, and enjoy my friends and family for an evening.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/ElToro-20110203-00130-1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/ElToro-20110203-00129-1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry, I don't have any photos from the show, but I will take more pictures tomorrow![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
