WAYNE'S NUMISMATIC DIARY: OCTOBER 23, 2022

Exhibits
I made a beeline to the exhibit area, which is always a highlight of the PAN shows.

Barber Coinage Exhibit
I only photographed a few of the great exhibits; here's one on Barber Coinage. Sorry for the unavoidable lighting glare.

 

 

 

Bronze West African Manilla
Someone had a great exhibit of West African Manilla.

 

 

 

National Currency
Some numismatic literature and bank bags caught my eye in this one.

 

 

Steigerwalt Catalogs
Speaking of numismatic literature, there was an impressive exhibit of Steigerwalt catalogs near the speaking area.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Civil War Showcase
Before hitting the road I made sure to stop at the Civil War Showcase to say hello to Rick Lank and Becky Rush.

I was only in the building a couple hours and missed more people than I had a chance to talk with. I sat down for a bit with Pat McBride and visited with Rich Jewell, Larry Dziubek, Dick Gaetano, Larry Korchnak and Melissa Kahn.

Spotted in passing or from a distance were Jeff and Mary Lynn Garrett, Al Boulanger, Bob Hurst, David Kahn and others.

Pat McBride sent me this wide-view photo of the busy bourse floor; that's Garrett Ziss in the University of Pittsburgh shirt on the left. See the next article in this issue for additional photos from the Civil War Showcase.
