[QUOTE="borgovan, post: 477991, member: 13016"]I bought this piece in the last row of the main ballroom, on Saturday afternoon. The dealer wasn't even at his table. I had to wait a good 10 minutes to find him and coax him back so I could buy it. In the meantime, a dealer friend of mine was looking in the same showcase. I had to shoo him away, and I told him I had dibs on that coin. Fortunately, he respected my wishes (or, more likely, wasn't interested in the coin.) You're right, though. There was a lot of nice material at that show. Especially the toned stuff. There was one dealer, though, that made me very angry. He had a lot of modern stuff that was wildly rainbow toned, and it was most obvious that it was artificial. The problem is that the stuff was in PCGS holders.
