Wow.  I knew there was something I was forgetting this weekend. ><  But I didn't really have any money anyway. *le sigh.*

Lovely coins, Richard! 

Do add this coin to my collection?

Things sure have changed in the numismatic arena in Houston since I lived there years ago and it was a numismatic ghost town.

Most of the smaller shows are just not advertised. You only get to hear about them from talking to dealers at the larger ones.
For the most part there is at least 1 show a month withing a 100mile radius of Houston.

You did well.

That is the advanage of coin shows, you can look around and find a bargain or just find that coin you do not have.


Pity we do not have more here in Brisbane
