<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bacchus, post: 45636, member: 759&quot;]I&#039;ve been to one, and I keep meaning to go to others here, but I keep forgetting to mark them down on my calendar.</p><p><br /></p><p>The one I went to had about 30 to 40 tables, and dealers were present at all of them and selling coins or coin collecting accessories and books.&nbsp; A nice contrast from gun shows, where half the tables are selling things unrelated like beef jerky, t-shirts,&nbsp; and even over-priced coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>While I was at the coin show, I only saw maybe six other visitors/buyers.&nbsp; I was expecting more of a crowd; I think I was there at 1pm on Saturday.&nbsp; I bought two coins for my Type collection (a Seated Liberty dime was one) and that&#039;s where I bought <i>Photograde.</i></p><p><br /></p><p>There&#039;s another show coming up here two weeks from Saturday; I&#039;ll try and get down to see it.</p><p><br /></p><p>The nice thing about coin shows seems to be selection, even though the dealers are only bringing a small part of their inventory.&nbsp; Different dealers seem to have different areas of specialization, so you get to see some coins you don&#039;t see only going to a few dealers.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m making a lot of generalizations here for only having seen one show.&nbsp;&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
