Title: Newcastle Coin Show?
Post by: drakesterling on February 07, 2016, 01:03:02 PM
I was wondering whether anyone knew if the Newcastle Coin Show in NSW is still a thing? There is a website that says it happens the 3rd Sunday on every month, but the site is old, and I notice some of the latest updates are from 2014. Any ideas?

Still operates, it's a combination Stamp/Coin do. Usually held at the Wallsend Pioneer Hall in Cowper St.
There are a few of the Facebook Nth Qld Coin people involved with it.
Worth a look if your local (I am) but it's no ANDA show.
At times a couple of Sydney based dealers make the trek when the dates don't conflict with other Sydney area suburban shows.

I have been there when I was in the area on the right date. Quite reasonable for a regional, regular show.
