We should have a great turnout at the show.
Don't forget to submit your application if you'd like to exhibit numismatic literature at the show. I hope we have many such exhibits this year. There are many possible topics, and several could be tied in to the event's venue. How about exhibits relating to great Philadelphia collectors or dealers?

The Collector Exhibits, a highlight of every ANA show, bring together talented numismatic exhibitors and stunning collections from across the nation. All areas of numismatics are represented, including U. S. coins and paper money, ancient coins, tokens, medals and exonumia. Exhibitors have the option to enter their displays in competitive (judged), non-competitive, or marquee (invitational) categories.
