[QUOTE="johnrpva, post: 2356816, member: 95358"]I went each of three days...traffic was pretty solid on Friday and Saturday...much quieter on Sunday...sold a group of conders, Civil war tokens, a couple of masonics and some unofficial farthings...the civil war token expert from ebay had a table, and provided a real education while discussing the market(s), token in general...bought an 1100 token collection beautifully organized by state in a series of eight binders..be busy sorting that out.. Prices were tight, dealers ready to negotiate, but they all seemed ok with the results of the show..while traffic was solid, there was time to spend some time talking with dealers...who were friendly and informative.. Lots of nice coins, heavy to dollars.. Nice setting, promoter furnished free parking which saved $8 per day... the convention center apparently hosts a dance competition virtually every week-end but this one was really pretty well-attended so the parking lot was full.. Randy Campbell, the head grader for IGC was there each day...personable, generous with his time and astounding knowledge..Skip Fazzari, the counterfeit expert was in Ocala, and one or both will be at Sarasota this week-end.. And, yes, virtually no one under 65 there...[/QUOTE]
