I had a great time and was able to see many old friends. My first show in three years. I only bought two coins but I was happy. It's the O-111. Not rare but it spoke to me. PCGS gave it AU-53.
Great job, Larry....yes, I really wanted to go this year but family and circumstances just weighted against me. Gonna clear out all the crap in 2023 and make sure FUN 2024 is a definite go.
That was me last year. Had everything booked and had to cancel. I'm thinking about going to the Summer FUN. Not as big but I have never been.
I'll consider it but I have alot of stuff this Summer with my astronomy club that is 100% re-opening. Play it by ear....
Seeing many friends was as important as the show itself. The coins were the icing on the cake, good for you @Idhair thanks for sharing.
Thanks for posting these. I was not aware that that is a fairly common occurrence on this series. Read a few posts a day here on coin talk and your bond to learn at least one thing.
I am trying to wrap my head around that coin. Whats with the double clash and rotated clash, with liberty at the side of the shield reverse. Bet that one sold for a pretty penny.
Actually, as I recall (I first saw it in 2004, then again in 2007) it didn't bring that much of a premium. I was the under bidder the first time, then waited too long the second time.
