[QUOTE="raider34, post: 738007, member: 16402"]Hey everyone, I figured I would post my thoughts on the Baltimore show. I was only there Friday from 10-3 so I can only speak for those times. It was a big show, probably around to 400 dealers. I think the crowd was decent, I wouldn't call it crowded though. It was probably busiest from around 11-1, and it really started to die out when I was leaving at 3. Just from my observation it seemed raw circulated U.S coins were the most popular, the tables with bargain bins always seemed to be busy. There were also a few world paper money tables that were pretty busy too. The least popular seemed to be U.S paper money, there were a lot of tables with U.S paper, so maybe that was one of the reasons, but those tables seemed to be pretty slow. I finally got to meet Charmy, The Penny Lady, she was awesome, and so was all that copper she had :thumb:. Unfortunately, I was pretty much out of money by the time I got to her table. Btw from what I saw it looked like her table was always pretty busy. So now for the purchases: 1879S Morgan MS67 (NGC) [IMG]http://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss357/superman6731/1879SObverse.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss357/superman6731/1879SRev.jpg[/IMG] It has some really nice dark purple toning in the fields on the Obv, so it kind of gives off a Cameo contrast with the device.
