<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 498323, member: 4552&quot;]I doubt that this is really true. I don&#039;t normally go to large shows such as that since they, as a general rule, are well overpriced on everything. If a few coins are within reason or actually cheap, it&#039;s just a come on. </p><p>Maybe I&#039;m wrong but since I go to about 2 to 4 coin shows a month, visit a few coin stores, I just don&#039;t see the market dropping. Not even a little. Possibly for some coins that are not the average collectors coins the market may have dropped somewhere, but not around me. </p><p>Where I live we have had some really fantastic bad weather but the attendance at coin shows is larger than ever. The one I went to around the middle of December was one of the most crowded I&#039;ve seen in years. I had to leave due to not much room in the aisles due to so many people. AND they were buying. </p><p>What I&#039;ve noticed over many, many years of coin shows is when they get large and dealers have to travel long distances, thier coin prices are way up there. They have to hold up in hotels, buy food out every day, pay for gas in a vehical or plane fares, other expenses and all must come from the profits from selling coins. Coin shows with dealers from the general area have much lower prices but not lately. </p><p>The standard, common, everyday coins are getting well up there in prices. Jefferson Nickels, State Quarters, Roosevelt Dimes, etc are the typical coins that have jumped in prices around me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
