Damn! I forgot that this show happened today! :(

unfortunately I couldn't go to the coin show today because I was busy today to study and I live far away from Mississauga. I have never been to a coin show before, what does a coin show consists of?

Well I got there about 1:30 but there wasn't that many people & some tables were deserted. I thought there would be hockey cards & comics (they advertised other collectibles)* so that's how I roped 2 friends into going. * Just to be clear: I had googled some of the names on the bourse chart & that's what they dealt in (sports cards & comics). There wasn't any of that (oddly enough): just stamps & a few postcards but perhaps the empty tables were these mystery guys.
Anyway, I wasn't very impressed with the banknotes offered either. So much processed DOC, 1935 & 1937 notes! But at least I got my new 36th Edition of Charlton CDN Government Paper Money catalogue! Prices on the tables are disappointing (low) but the catalogue is thick & chocked full of info.
