If I go to the Anaheim show tomorrow, will I be happy?

Long drive, but possible rewards at the end?

Probably not, but theres a bunch of people from here and the PCGS boards to hang with and shoot the coin chit.

 

I'm making an 1.5 hour drive for it.

Possibly, but I'd doubt it since there's a bunch of people from here and the PCGS boards who'll want to hang with you and shoot the coin chit.

Unless Lam goes into labor in the next 12 hours I'll be there. That alone should be worth the trip!

[truthteller]

'That alone should be worth the trip!'

 

 

 

OK, I'll be there at about 12 ish.

Haven't you heard about firstborns. Average labor is about 16-20 hours(from water break to birth), sometimes 36 hours. My firstborn was about 20 hours. Enough time for coinshow, lunch, and a movie.

I know that but apparently misery loves company and I have to share every moment.

Hey...this was a pretty well attended show. In fact, I was shocked at how many people were in the place when I got there.

 

I met up with clw, Truth, Jammin' and Strat. Truth got some good Mexican peices along with some commems. I'm sure others did well also.

 

So....you guys back east think you have all the good small shows. Bah! We can claim a good show here every once in a while too.

It was a fun show. Well worth the drive.

[truthteller]

Well, I drove a total of 435 miles to get to the show and back. I was very pleased at the turnout and very, very pleased at my purchases. I dipped a couple of better date mexican pieces that I purchased cheaply, only to find out they were nice BU coins under the dark, heavy toning. So, a $10 investment turned out to be $200. Lots of collectors, about 30 dealers, most, if not all, were pleased with the attendance. I bought a couple of nice slabbed mexican coins from JamminJ, and a few better Mexican pieces from several dealers. I met up with a few forum members, clw54, Strat, MrLee. JOM, JamminJ and I went to a curious fish taco restaurant for lunch, my treat. We gossiped, especially about GMarguli, talked coins, a bit of politics, more coins. They got me intoxicated on orange juice, and I spilled the beans on some major scandalous events in numismatic history. All around, a great time.

Nah, the best part was convincing you to dip that AU50 gold piece.
