They are listed at right and on the website, and we will be posting the pictures over the next few days.

My next show is the FUN show in Tampa, Florida January 6 - 8, 2011. If you attend that show, please stop by and say hello! And we wish all of our customers and friends a happy holiday season!

| The "kid in the candy store" feeling |
Recently, I received a note from a new customer that said, "when I went onto your website, I felt like a kid in a candy store." That brought me back about 25 years when I had the exact same feeling looking at Jim O'Donnell's coins at a show. I always found a coin or two to buy at Jim's table. Of course, they were not the most expensive coins he had.
One of the things we try to deliver to our customers is that "kid in a candy store" feeling. I can't attend every show, and I don't have a "brick and mortar" store, but my website is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. So, you can get the "kid in a candy store" feeling anytime you want!
