nice video, were more dealers buying or selling? Last month in Jacksonville, seem more dealers trying to buy than sell? What were the prices on silver?
Had a little of both going on, with some trading between booths. Most dealers said it was a little slower than the winter show for obvious reasons. Prices were fair on most bullion object going about a buck over spot for bars and bullion coins. Some chit chat about a price movement upward next week.

I was also at this show. Tended to be more "dealer-to-dealer" but most shows seem to be that way. I myself found, or shall I say, "cherrypicked" a few varieties so I'm happy about that.
Silver and gold bullion moves decently. Premiums at these South Florida shows are very reasonable, compared to the premiums I had seen at a coin show up in Michigan once.
Gary Lewis, who was interviwed (former ANA President) has been involved in coins since around the mid 1950's and is very knowledgeable about numismatics, and it is always an honor to have him at these shows. Gary does about 3 shows per month and is very accesible to talk to.
The 1.5 oz sterling silver chain for $30 was a steal!!!!
