[QUOTE="wxcoin, post: 7814348, member: 74624"]The Wausau Annual Coin Show was held today and was a great success for both buyers and dealers. The bourse was busy all day. Normally the show is held in late April but after missing a year due to Covid the show was pushed to today. I think a lot of us were unsure how many would attend since this is peak tourist season up here in northern Wisconsin; people are generally more interested in spending time outdoors. One of my highlights was looking at coins from a collection a local dealer recently purchased. Most of the collection was put together prior to 1949. After the man passed away in 1949 it was inherited by his son who passed it on to his children who recently sold it. Included in the collection were numerous mint state and proof liberty seated quarters. Several of the proofs had incredible blue toning along with several nice cameos. In addition to these, there were many nice standing liberty quarters and mercury dimes. I wish now that I would have purchased at least one of the liberty seated quarters as most were sold quickly. It was encouraging seeing how well the show went for both the buyers and dealers. One dealer told me that it was both good and bad: good since he sold a lot of coins, bad because now he has to try to replace a lot of his inventory.[/QUOTE]
