[QUOTE="usc96, post: 942143, member: 25676"]I have now been to several meetings of my local coin club with my 8 and 10 year old boys. The first half is business while the second half is an action. Overall the members are very welcoming and I've met some real nice folks. The auction items are put up by other members (some professional dealers, some hobbyists). The items seem to be fairly generic, with no items going for more than $40 or $50, which most less than $20. That being said, I've found myself contributing to the local dealers, primarily through my kids. What I buy for myself is for my US Coin Type 7070 set. The club puts on two shows a year and there is an Annual Banquet around Christmas time. I participated in those as a child back in the 70s, but can't speak to how those are run today. For those who are in one, why are you a member of your local coin club? :D[/QUOTE]
