Default Palm Beach Coin Show.......................


Hi Gang! Whats new?? I went to the Palm Beach Coin show today. Scored
three Morgans to help fill in my set. About 200-220 tables. Some call
this a small coin show, I call it the biggest one I have been to!
Everyone was quite pleasant also! I got to meet RCC's own legendary
Ira Stein. An experience in itself! Hes gotta teach me how to Grade
Morgans and other coins! He takes (what appears to be) a glance at the
coin and hits the grade to the point! NGC, ANACS, ICG and NTC (UGH!)
Showed up, but no PCGS.......kind of a let down oh well.. Got to see
One of two know Ultra High Relief Inverted Date Double Eagles. It is
amazing how the design stands out on the coin. No picture can do it
justice, It has to be seen IN person! I'll post more on the coin show
tomorrow, after all Im going back again!!

Any Thoughts??




Regards,

Gary Loveless

Hi Gary,

Don't forget to tell everyone that they were giving out
FREE silver eagles. I got one.

OH YEAH.........I got one of those too........When I went to the table
they guy was CLANKING them together like shuffling a deck of
cards.....He tried to hand me one of those, I said can I get a fresh
one outta the new case? He said 'sure' and gave me one of those,
to me this guy is not a TRUE coin collector, but just a sales rep. Any
true coin collector would never do something like that to coins in MS
!!!!

Gary
