A dealer is not likely to want to stand and talk shop if he can be making a sale to another collector. </p><p><br /></p><p>Going to a coin show is a wonderful experience - it is possible you can learn a lot - it is possible you will learn nothing. For as the saying goes - you can&#039;t believe everything you read - well you can&#039;t believe everything you hear either. Dealers are just ordinary people - some know a lot, some know a little, and some who think they know a lot actually know nothing. But the more YOU know - the easier it will be for you to judge who knows what. So try to talk to folks - most love to talk about their hobby. If the dealers are busy - strike up a conversation with some of the collectors. Often times they know more than the dealers do. But take what you hear with a grain of salt&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Above all - have fun !
