My Coin Show Trip.

in #steemsilvergold6 years ago (edited)

Hello steemers, Today i want to share my coin show trip from yesterday. Sunday was the quarterly coin show for the Cresent City coin club. This coin show is small and put on by a regional coin org. not sponsored by a big company. At this coin show there was around 12 dealers and 15 different tables selling coins and supplies.

Me and @monchhichi23 strolled around the show looking for some deals or rarities. After walking around visiting all booths, i gravitated to the dealer with modern bullion and precious metals. This dealer had a great selection for being a smaller set up. He had all the newest 2018 releases bullion coin except the Swan.

He also had a variety of generic bullion that caught my eye. I think this is the booth where i'm going to pick up some weight for my stack.

I walked around the show one last time to make sure i found the best prices on what i was looking for. I wound up buying some stuff from the dealer pictured above. After all that haggling me and the wife was hungry. We stopped at a cool burger joint "Ted's Frost top'' for a bite to eat.

Thanks, it was a great day.

Nice pickups @firecajun9262! There were a lot of great pieces to pick from in that booth. It must not have been easy.

Thanks, i was pleasantly surprised at the prices at his booth. He was cheaper than Ebay.

Looks like some great silver @firecajun9262 and a good time!

Thanks, i really had a good day.

That's really cool, I've never been to a coin show before. But I'm going to try this year to go to one! Thanks for posting this!

Thanks, It was cool but every few years a Ana coin show comes down south. The last time it was here i saw a 1913 v nickel with armed guards. That one is amazing

that sounds cool. what's the 'Ana coin show', does it go to Denver?

That's really cool. Looks like a fun show and you got some sweet additions for your stack. Oh, that burger looks good too! :)

Thanks, i really enjoyed the day with my wife the rest is lagniappe.
