<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bluegill, post: 144587, member: 1748&quot;]Sunday I went to a meeting of the Louisville Coin Club. Very nice folks; I think I’ll head back to the next meeting with a membership application and dues. One gentleman gave a presentation on multiple grading standards for large cents (the one used by catalogs, and the one used by everyone else, if I correctly followed the gist of the presentation). There was an auction, and for $5.50 I got three books: </p><p><br /></p><p>-<i>The Official Price Guide to Minting Errors and Varieties </i>(5th ed.) by Alan Herbert</p><p>-<i>The Charlton Standard Catalogue of Canadian Coins </i>(51st ed., 1997)</p><p>-<i>Type Three Double Eagles 1877-1907: A Numismatic History and Analysis </i></p><p><br /></p><p>I had fun.&nbsp; I was easily the youngest person there, and probably half the thirty or so attendees were close to twice my age, or more. They made me stand and introduce myself, and I was made to feel very welcome.:smile[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
