National Money Show-Atlanta Feb 27-March-1st

Anybody going to the national money show in Atlanta next week. Saturday is a free day and open to the public at 10 am. It's a large coin show with one of the 1792 disme? precursor to the dime coin on display.
[url=http://nationalmoneyshow.com I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but can't get the link to work.
 
Can't make it this year fongu, but I can imagine there will literally be TON'S of eye candy!!!:drool:
 
I hope I can make it myself. It's gonna be rough driving up and coming back the same day.
 
I didn't make it either, WY. The spirit was willing, but the flesh was weak. I really wanted to see the horde of gold coins the folks found in their back yard as it was supposed to be on display at this show. I went to the river about 1 pm and detected until 3 pm and my At/Pro acted up like it had water in the battery compartment again. Changed coil, batteries, headphones, reset and tried everything I could to get it to quit falsing, but no go. I had the GTI-2500 and wanted to use it on land awhile, but the old bones said go home Fongu. There will be another day. Found 1 nickel & 1 penny and a small star shaped ear ring and lots of bullets and 22 casings. the modification on my scoop worked great. I really wanted to visit with Lighthouse publications at their booth and get a usb microscope, stand and light, but will have to wait until the next time. You get better deals at the coin shows than you do online.
 
Hey Fongu, sorry to hear you didn't make it to the ANA show. Eyeballing those "Saddle Ridge" gold coins would've been awesome. But at least you got out, and hopefully the Pro will dry out and get you on some gold and silver soon enough. I made it out as well, and got my first Indian Head cent. Found it at a tot-lot, I'm continually surprised by what people carry/wear with them (and loose!!!). I think I'm going to save-N-roll some clad and try to make next years show...............
 
Congratulations on your Indian head cent and the other clad you found. coin week has some video of the coin show in Atlanta if you want to watch it. www.coinweek.com
