About the Show
Held three times each year (March, June, and November), the Whitman Coin & Collectibles Expo is — alongside the FUN Show in January and the ANA World’s Fair of Money in summer — one of the three primary destination shows on the U.S. numismatic calendar. The Baltimore convention regularly attracts 800+ dealer tables, every major U.S. and world coin grading service, and Stack’s Bowers Galleries’ flagship floor auctions.
What to Expect
Comprehensive U.S. type coin inventory, ancient and world coins, paper money, exonumia, tokens, medals, and bullion. PCGS, NGC, ANACS, ICG, and PMG all maintain on-site grading desks. The Stack’s Bowers floor auction sessions held during each Whitman Expo regularly produce six- and seven-figure trade-grade results.
Pro Tips
- Bourse floor is open to the public Wednesday through Sunday during a typical show week.
- Auction lot viewing opens early in the show week — consult the Stack’s Bowers schedule.
- Inner Harbor restaurants are within a 5-minute walk for show breaks.
Always verify exact dates and auction schedules at the official Whitman Expo and Stack’s Bowers websites.
