UPDATED LIST BELOW IN TOPIC:
I am not promoting nor endorsing any of these shows. I am merely posting the information for anyone in the Florida area that might wish to attend. If you need more information I am sure that a Google search will give you the details.
North Lake Coin and Currency Club Coin Show -- Saturday, March 13, 2010 -- 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. -- Located at the Veterans Memorial American Legion Post 347, 699 W. Lady Lake Blvd., Lady Lake, Florida. I have not attended this show in the past so I have no idea how large/small/good/bad it might be.
Central Florida Coin Club Spring Show -- April 8 - 10, 2010 This is held at the Central Florida Fairgrounds in Orlando, Florida with free admission and in the past there has also been free parking. Their flyer also says free gift and free hourly door prizes. I have attended this show twice in the past and it is a nice club show, in my opinion. This is also the club that worked the recent FUN show with the registration tables, etc.
I have gotten conflicting information about the above coin show. Their website is listing the dates as:
Future Show Dates
April 9 - 11, 2010 September 10 - 12, 2010
The April dates conflict with the flyer I had picked up at the FUN Show which shows it being held on April 8 - 10, 2010. The 10th is a Saturday and the flyer has the show ending at 3 p.m. on Saturday. If this is correct information, I can't truly say how worth anyone's time it might be as past shows that end early on the last day always have had many dealers not showing up at all and others beginning to pack up by noon. IF I can learn which dates and/or times are correct, I will post the info here. Hope this hasn't inconvenienced anyone.
Received the following info regarding inquiry I made on above listed coin show in Orlando, this coming weekend:
Show dates were changed after the FUN show. Our website is correct. Show runs from Friday thru Sunday. Dealer set up is on Thirsday. Fri , Sat hours 10 -6 Sun hours 10 - 3. Drawing will be on Sun at 2 pm. You do not have to be present to win. Also, I thank you for telling people about the show and I do hope that you will be there.
Hope this information clears it all up for anyone interested in attending this show in Orlando at the Fairgrounds.
April 23 - 25, 2010, Sarasota, Florida. U.S. Hwy. 41, Municipal Auditorium. Found this info online about this show: Date: Apr 23-25 Location: Sarasota, FloridaSarasota Coin Show. Sarasota Municipal Auditorium, 801 N. Tamiami Trl. Hrs: Fri.-Sat. 10AM-5PM, Sun. 10AM-3PM. Sarasota and Manatee Coin Clubs. Frank Cox, 755 S. Palm Ave., #203, Sarasota, FL 34236. PH: 941-954-0202. Email: frankcox@comcast.net or visit website: You must be logged in to see this link. DLR: 70. TA: 100. FR

The Greater Jacksonville Coin Club Coin Show -- May 28 - 30, 2010 This is to be held at the Morocco Shrine Temple, 2800 St. Johns Bluff Rd., South, Jacksonville, Florida. Their flyer also says Free Admission and Parking. I have never attended this show so I have no idea as to the size/quality, etc.
Summer FUN Show is to be held in Orlando, Florida July 8 - 10, 2010. I have no idea if the Summer FUN Show is anywhere near the size of the FUN Show that was just held in January, 2010. I know the recent FUN Show was massive and really educational too. There was a fee for parking but admission for that show was free. Not sure about the Summer FUN Show as far as parking fee and/or admission.
If I find out about more I will post them. I am putting this post in more than one area as I have learned that some members don't necessarily frequent the entire forum.
Enjoy your coin searches, everyone.

You are welcome. I hope to see you perhaps at one of these shows, depending on my husband's work schedule and ability to drive me there.

This coming Friday - Sunday is the coin show in Sarasota, Florida.
Anyone going??? If so, PM me early this week so I'll have time to get online to check my messages.
I can't be sure but we are hoping to be able to drive down early on Saturday to attend the show that day. I understand it is a several hours drive each way for us. Of course, it all depends on the husband's work schedule and his/my health. He is supposed to be off this Saturday but there have been some family emergencies for co-workers and he may have to have his schedule altered. So, I may not know for certain until the end of the week.
But, if you are going on Saturday send me a PM with your cell number so we can meet up at the show if I am able to attend.

Sadly, I won't be able to attend the show in Jacksonville, Florida this weekend. 
If anyone goes, how about posting a report and how it was? Thanks. |
