    Good thing about those small shows is parking and admission are free. I know that the World's Fair of Money is soon in Philadelphia where parking is not free and there is an admission fee.
     
  5. A little over 2 hours for me. I think I might try to make it. Thanks for the heads up.

    Too bad it's not after the 12th or I might have tried to make it. I'll be just up the road in Emporium around then.

    The coin show was great, at least for me. I went looking and found a nice MS 1953 SF nickel and probably 30 different Canadian large cents that practically filled out my set with all the dates.
    I got two MS war nickels and an 1854 US Large Cent in amazing condition for 15 bucks for all three coins total as well off one dealer.
    My buddy bought a F-12 1875 S attractive problem free twenty cent piece in a newer yellow ANACS slab for $65.00!
    There were plenty of dealers and a great assortment of coins. Anyone could have spent the whole day there if they wanted to and have a blast. There were lots of people showing up all morning I was there. The parking lot had lots of cars but there was still some room for parking.
    There also was a lot of room to get around and every dealer had chairs in front of the tables. It was busy enough that I had to wait my turn to do some dealing but I was able to look at coins while I waited at the tables.
    Saturday seems to be a better day and the new location and gymnasium was a big improvement.
    Everything was better than any of the WANS shows I have attended in previous years.
