Went yesterday, and it was a great experience. Many dealers and staff were talking about how busy/good Thursday was, I didn't get any details though. Show has approximately 60 dealers set up. While there was a wide variety of items, both coins and currency, it seems as if there are more and more dealers with the newest 'manufactured collectibles'. You know, a mint has a license for Star Wars, so they mint coins for all the characters, limit to 1,000, and charge $150. I don't know if more and more people are buying these items, or if there is going to be some sort of market correction shortly. Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon? I bought a Korean War commem without the lid to the box for $20 I bought a 1916 10 peso Cuban gold coin for melt I bought 4 Cuban pesos and a 40 cent piece too. I asked about the Bicentennial sets, either unc or proof was $20. Seems not so long ago I was buying those for $10. Are people getting ready for 2026?
My teens love the movie themed silver issues. I agree the prices seem quite high but I like that my kids want to come to a show with me
