<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jhonn, post: 240940, member: 5418&quot;]Well, I ended up going to my first show on Sat. It was indeed pretty small, but I&#039;m glad it was because I think I would&#039;ve been too overwhelmed if it had been any larger. There were about 50 dealers, I think. I started off my just going by every table just to see what people were offering. Lots of U.S. stuff in general, and lots of Morgans in specific. Not too much gold. Only one guy was exclusively ancient/medieval, and it was pretty high-end and expensive stuff. I was mostly searching for silver world coins, and luckily there were a lot of bulk world bins, and most of those were half-off. I only had a few hours there, so I wasn&#039;t able to go through al lthe bins, and I ONLY spent around $65, which the wife appreciated. I will try to post pics of all the coins I purchased with prices and all that.</p><p><br /></p><p>And I was finally able to pick up a VF 1912 D Lib. nickel, completing my 1900-1964 U.S. type-set! I&#039;m very pleased with that. Also thinking of picking up a proof &#039;00 Sac dollar now. Didn&#039;t realize how pretty they were until I saw &#039;em as a frosty proof.</p><p><br /></p><p>Overall, I had a blast, picked up a ton of free magazines, and met some very nice people. Even thinking of joining a Denver coin-club now. Plus, EVERY dealer cut at least a few bucks off the purchase price on everything I bought. The sole exception was one dealer, but I was buying a proof &#039;03 nickel with great cameo, and it was already only $2, so no loss there!</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, and I brought my Red Book and one other book on world coins, but I forgot to bring my loupe! Ridiculous.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
