I normally try to be "at the gate" waiting for the doors to open on the first day of any Baltimore show I go to, but this time around we decided to wait to go down until the second day (Friday). I was nervous that everything would be picked over, but, as it turned out, not so much! I got to do some catching up with JR, BR, Burch, Doc and Jack Lee and JR joined my family for the consumption of mass quantities of Brazilian beef (and we all did, in fact, eat our fair share!
).As for my pickin's, they are as follows:
PCGS MS61PL 1878-P VAM-43
PCGS MS64 1882-O VAM-38B
NGC MS63 1888-O VAM-1b1 (JR called it an H2, but the crack splits in the field, so I may have to check into it a bit more, cuz I REALLY don't want another H2...)
PCGS AU58 1878-P VAM-70 (PL coin, bought to eventually send to ANACS because I just kinda want an "AU PL" labeled holder...)
Raw 1921-D VAM-1u (Nothing special grade-wise, but I never picked one in the wild and, ironically, I was just talking to someone about this one earlier in the week)
And last, but certainly not least, a raw MS63-64 1883-O VAM-22A! First one of these I've found in several years!
So, yeah, great time as always!
