Wow, my first coin show was amazing, never have i seen such amazing things, looked at 9 1856 FE cents, the possibly unique 1974-D aluminum, and countless other amazing coins, and a 100 ounce gold bar... Picked up a 1914-D and 1909-S for my Lincoln cent album, and a MS 64 1884-O Morgan for my type set... all in all it was a good day, and a great learning experience, oh and I sold my Lunar tigers for a 10% return in only two months. Great time, for anyone else there today or tmr have fun :thumbsup:

1856 Flying Eagle Cents I think he meant...I just spent 10 minutes trying to find out what a 1956 FE cents was!
 

That's awesome. I'm hopefully going to a coin show this weekend. I have been going to the same one for a while now.

So did you actually see the 74 aluminum cent? I read a link about it and it looked beautiful- wouldve been cool had they done that for a while

Yes it was there, right at the Heritage booth, I actually got to hold it in the PCGS holder because they were taking it out to take pictures for the news, and I was right there, really cool coin, its like grey blue, with great luster and same size as modern cents. I think it is MS-64, but honestly it looks gem to me... ya they also had a huge collection of early dollars on display, forget the name, but it was prob 30 or more, all pre 1820 in au or better, mind blowing stuff.
 

by name i mean who put the collection together, I don't think it was for sale though, just display, the cent of course is going to cell in Chicago.

If you did all that with your $100 budget, you did great! :notworthy:
