[QUOTE="kanga, post: 737464, member: 9270"]I attended during the Friday public session which started 10AM. My style is to locate what I'd like, buy, then scoot. Total time: 3 hours. Fridays are nice because the crowd is smaller so it's easy to move around and to belly up to most tables. Of course this is from the buyer's perspective. I got to meet Charmy but that was the only CoinTalk person I saw. NGC had my coins. Gave them nine for crossovers but three didn't make it. Two were refused as being cleaned; the other as being a lesser grade than I asked for. Of the six that crossed over, two came back higher, two even and two less (I gave the graders a bit of wiggle room on the coins). The only REAL bummer was that my 1795 half cent didn't make it to the show. The dealer will mail it to me later. Here's the coins I bought. This one is for my type set: [IMG]http://home.comcast.net/~dcderoo/5-1800-Final-txt.jpg[/IMG] This one is for my Capper Bust set: [IMG]http://home.comcast.net/~dcderoo/5-1833-Final-txt.jpg[/IMG] Now I have to think about the Orlando FUN show in January.[/QUOTE]
