<p>[QUOTE=&quot;romismatist, post: 7317625, member: 44106&quot;]&quot;Over thirty years ago a collector-dealer started a shop which he called Calgary Coin Gallery. Unlike most of the dealers he actively went to shows both in the UK as well as the US and bought coins back to Calgary. Thus I remember taking many trips down there to see what he had brought back. At this time there were many hoards available at these shows and so&nbsp; I could go and buy huge numbers of these coins at relatively modest prices. He is still active however he is close to retirement and I am not sure of the future of his franchise. Still it was always a pleasure to go there and see what coins he had.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, I remember Calgary Coin Gallery as well and bought quite a few coins from them decades ago. They exhibited at the annual Torex show in Toronto and always had a wide selection of ancients. They also had some informative web pages on ancients although I think that hasn&#039;t been updated in some time.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I was living in Calgary a few years ago I visited their store several times... they had stopped selling antiquities after the flood and had focused on coins. Robert has always been very knowledgeable and very conversational.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
