Anyone attending the Long Beach Expo?

[AstroRaider]

Will anyone in this group be attending the Long Beach (California) Coin and Stamp Expo (September 23, 24 & 25)?

I will be hanging around the ancient coin section on either Friday Sept 24 or Saturday Sept 25. And I will frequent a few Lincoln Cent tables, no doubt.

I will probably pick up Wile's book (RPM). What's the going price for that?

Any other book recommendations? Or are there websites that are comparable (or better)?

I highly recommend the book 'Authoritative Reference on Lincoln Cents' second edition. I actually wrote a review of it tonight on the general discussion forum. I got mine on the internet, so I dont know if they'll have any copies where you'll be heading.

RPM books are hard to find and expensive. I would suggest Wiles' RPM book vol. 3 on DVD from Varietyvista.com. Wiles' Vol. 2 is absurdly priced over $100 used and Wexler's Vol. 1 can be pricey too.

The Comprehensive Guide to Lincoln Memorial Cent Repunched Mint Mark Varieties: 1959 and The Comprehensive Guide to Lincoln Cent RPMs - Volume 1 Wheat Cents 1909 - 1939 are available and helpful as well.
