London coin fair

[Agpanda]

I am planing a trip to London with the wife in December

Will there be any coinfairs there at that time?

We want to visit before x-mas

Cheers

Just the right date to spend some money on Xmas pressie coins. Anyone been to this show before and can recommend it?

I have been a couple of times. It is quite small, just one room and a lot of the tables are ancients and the like. There are a few tables selling sovereigns and some slabbed coins as well as a bit of silver. Silver tended to be pretty expensive. 

The table I do like belongs a company called the coin cabinet. The dealer is very friendly and good for a chat. I think Numistacker has dealt with him a few times. 

£3 to get it in.

Coin Cabinet is Andreas Afeldt.

Top bloke...I can personally vouch for him.

I think he is Swedish also.

Agreed the Bloomsbury Fair is as Ansel describes...you are unlikely to find any pandas there!!

The London Coin Fair is on November 3rd and is a much bigger affair and would defo be worth visiting.

You would also be more likely to meet with Silver Forum members there as many of us attend.

I wouldn't say don't go if you are in London anyway, just don't expect too much from it. It is a light snack rather than a three course meal!
