Coin Show

I went to the local coin show and came back with some purchases.  The show was moderately sized and had about 40 or so dealer tables.

I picked up the first Lincoln cent, along with a Barber dime and Barber quarter.  See below for the pictures:

The dealer gave me a break on the quarter, looked at the coin and said I could have it for $10.  I never had a 1909 Lincoln so I decided to pick one up.  The Barber dime is a date I needed and one of the nicer coins in the dealers case.  See the photos below for the reverse sides of the coins.

The show was free to enter and was in an older VFW hall.  It was about a 25 minute drive to the location.  My 8 year old nephew was the real winner of the day.  He was the only person under the age of 30 at the show, and got some free coins and currency from dealers.  He chose some foreign coins out of a box and the dealer let him get a few extras. 

We both had a great time and hope to come back.  Next time, I will be more prepared with my list of Lincoln cents, as I would like to add some more cents from 1909 to 1940 in my blue Whitman folder.
