<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Publius2, post: 4185514, member: 105571&quot;]If &quot;community spread&quot; increases to the level it did in China and appears to be doing in Korea and other nations, and it likely will, then attendance at coin shows will dramatically decrease as will gatherings of all types.&nbsp; For example, Japan has cancelled public school for all of March.&nbsp; Soccer games are being played to empty stadiums.&nbsp; Movie theatres are closing.&nbsp; But in this country, so far, it hasn&#039;t prevented people from showing up at political rallies.&nbsp; Some of this numismatic business will simply transition to venues like on-line auctions and sales but much of it will not, especially for small and/or local dealers.&nbsp; In addition, there will be a general diminution of all business as people &quot;hunker down&quot; both physically and financially.&nbsp; There may be an uptick in bullion coinage but I think the numismatic market will suffer.</p><p><br /></p><p>If these projections occur and are prolonged for a sufficient but unknown time, then it would present buying opportunities for collectors.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
