[QUOTE="rld14, post: 483314, member: 16133"]So I had been planning to go to one of two local coin shows here in New Jersey today. These 2 shows were 4 miles apart, so if one was no good I could hit the other, right? Well, we got 6" of snow the other night, and when I woke up this morning it was coming down again. In spite of being intelligent, I decided to drive to the show anyway. My mother asked to go to a show, so I picked her up and dragged her along. This was what the drive looked like... [IMG]http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/5881/sundaycoinshowinsnownv3.jpg[/IMG] First show was mainly stamps, few customers, few dealers. 1 guy was selling coins and I did pick up a 28-S SLQ for the 1928 Mint Mark Hoard. Got to the hotel at 9, ate breakfast, spent an hour at the show, didn't find any covers (I collect 1861 issue US Stamps) so I went off to the next show. Next show was nearly full of dealers, some buyers but nowhere near as crowded as I expected, but seeing as it was snowing heavily, I wasn't surprised at all. Managed to pick up 6 Walkers for my circulated set, 3 SLQs for the VF Circulated set and 5 more for my 28 Mint Mark Hoard. Also picked up a nice 81-0 Raw Morgan, seemed like a well struck NO coin and besides, my little cousin wants an old Silver Dollar and a nice shiny BU one will make her thrilled. Between the shows and eBay that's 2 28-Ds and 10 28-Ss this week, 2 of which are Doubled MMs! :D :D[/QUOTE]
