There are three major coin shows on the docket this week.
First up is the Ninth Annual International Coin Show, which is being jointly hosted by the Windsor Coin Club and Polish American Numismatic Society today at the American Polish Cultural Center on 2975 East Maple Rd. in Troy, Mich.—only about 30 minutes from the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel in Windsor, Ont.
With more than 100 dealer tables, Michigan’s largest one-day club coin show is open from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Attendees are invited to buy, sell and trade a variety of numismatic items, including coins, currency, medals, tokens, books and supplies. What’s more, there’s no sales tax charged on coins and bullion in Michigan.
Admission is free, and authentic Polish food is available at the venue.
OSHAWA
Also being held today is Coin-A-Rama, which is hosted by the Oshawa and District Coin Club at a new venue, the Jubilee Pavilion on 55 Lakeview Park Ave. in Oshawa, Ont.
The one-day show will be open from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. and features free dealer and membership draws, hourly public draws and free admission. Dealers will have coins, paper money, tokens, medals, books, supplies and other numismatic items on hand.
TOREX
Later this week, the popular Torex Coin Show and Auction will be held at the Hyatt Regency on 370 King St. W. in Toronto, Ont. The two-day show will be open on Feb. 24 from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. and on Feb. 25 from 10 a.m.-3 p.m.
Admission is $7 (although children aged 16 and under are free). Since 1962, Torex has featured top numismatic dealers in a variety of material.
