This photo shows the right side of the huge bourse floor. The tables in front are those of Superior Galleries. As you can see, things are really hopping, with lots of people everywhere. There were at least 1,200 coin dealers at this show, and the only way to find anything at all was by using the "sky-high navigation system." Hanging from the ceiling were 12 large banners, numbered 100 through 1200. These corresponded to the booth numbers assigned to the dealers. If you weren't looking for anybody in particular, there were other banners to help you find your way, including ones that read "Ancient and World" and "Budget Area." The exhibit area was near the front left, and the special Wisconsin Banknotes exhibit that Chet Krause put out filled up 150 standard dealer show cases, and Chet told me that he still didn't get all of the bank notes displayed!
Another important area of the bourse floor was the Promenade of World Mints, although unfortunately the Mexico Mint got stuck way out at the end of row 1200 for some odd reason. There seemed to be plenty of room to have accomodated them in the Promenade area, but even if there wasn't, they should have put Singapore out in the boonies since Singapore didn't even bother to staff their booth!
