<p>[QUOTE=&quot;akeady, post: 2632044, member: 83175&quot;]Hi Ken,</p><p><br /></p><p>There are effectively no coin shops now <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp;&nbsp; There are a few dealers who come to the coin shows and one who has more of a stall than a shop in the Georges Arcade.&nbsp;&nbsp; In Belfast, there&#039;s at least one coin dealer at the Friday George&#039;s Market, whose name escapes me at the moment.&nbsp;&nbsp; The shop you mentioned off O&#039;Connell St was Emil Szauer&#039;s &quot;Coins &amp; Medals&quot; - he is long retired and deceased.&nbsp;&nbsp; We have an &quot;Emil Szauer Memorial Lecture&quot; every year (February, usually) at the Numismatic Society of Ireland, as he was a founder member.&nbsp;&nbsp; The shop was more recently occupied by &quot;Cathedral Stamps&quot;, who did sell some modern coins and supplies; they&#039;ve since moved out of the city centre.&nbsp;&nbsp; There&#039;s a stamp dealer in Cork (Raven Stamps), who may sell some coins also.</p><p>So - not much of a coin shop scene in Ireland, I&#039;m afraid!&nbsp;&nbsp; Still - it can be a short and cheap flight to London to see better fairs and shops <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>ATB,</p><p>Aidan.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
