<p>[QUOTE="Terence Cheesman, post: 4896330, member: 86498"]This news saddens me a lot. I had planned to go come hell or high water but that option is now closed. I too enjoy the NYINC. I have been to it four times already and I must admit I have seen so many wonderful coins there. Some of these I actually managed to purchase. I remember saying after my first visit to the show "If I had a half a million dollars I could have bought 2 coins." It was such an experience just being able to get close and really be able to examine some very rare and beautiful coins. The auctions were great as well. It seems that before going I would make all these elaborate plans for purchasing coins, only to have those plans dashed and running downstairs to the view room trying to see, if a coin that I sort of liked was actually worth purchasing. One of my purchases from the last NYINC. Syracuse Ar Tetradrachm 466-460 B.C. Obv. Slow quadriga right. Rv. Head of Arethusa right surrounded by dolphins Boh 438 17.40 grms 26 mm CNG Triton XXIII Lot 117 Photo by W. Hansen[ATTACH=full]1181523[/ATTACH] Actually I did not plan to buy this coin. I actually was interested in one of the other Syracuse tetradrachms offered in this sale. However when I saw it I knew I just had to have it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
