I went to the Collectorama show in Lakeland FL last weekend. It was a good show. There were about 125 tables with something for everyone. I picked up a nice AU '51S Franklin (only 6 to go!) and a pretty 1891S Seated Quarter. Took the wife and kids and everyone had a great time. I even bought all the kids wheaties they got from the coin grab so they were happy too. (I haven't been able to talk the youngest out of her Barber Quarter though!). One day I'll learn to take pics of coins. So far none have come out recognizable!

Now that is the way to go to a coin show. Take the entire family, have fun, enjoy the hobby and don't worry about the minor stuff. And I just wonder if your youngest will someday let you have that coin. Possibly about 20 years from now.
