Visitors to the May 2026 Greater Atlanta Coin Show enjoyed a beautiful day outside and all the tables inside filled with dealers and their showcases packed with coins, currency, bullion and other collectibles.
We appreciate all of you who contribute to the show each month from our visitors to our dealers to our security to the food ladies and to the IAM Union Hall's staff.
All of you contribute to the fun and help make the show a success. Thank you all.
For May, Mother Nature provided a beautiful day outside with sunshine and lower temperatures than the 90s experienced recently. It was a gorgeous day to be out and visiting a coin show.
The food ladies set up and offered several options for food during the show. Their menu included hot dogs, hamburgers, chili dogs, tuna salad sandwiches, turkey sandwiches, carrot pie, purple sweet potato pie and huge chocolate chip cookies.

Some of our dealers were weekend warriors. They packed up at other shows on Saturday, such as Columbia and Knoxville, and came to set up at the Greater Atlanta Coin Show on Sunday. We appreciate your getting to the show. Of course, we appreciate all of our dealers.
Several visitors brought items to be appraised. Some of their items were spendable at face value while others contained precious metals or had numismatic value over their face value.
It really takes someone who knows the numismatic market to determine the current value of collected items.
Similarly, people brought known bullion items to determine their worth in the market today. Some kept their items while others chose to sell.
In recent years, the US Mint did not produce as many proof coin sets as they did in the earlier years of providing the proof set. Not as many people have been interested in buying the proof coins.

As a result of their smaller mintages, these proof sets can be valuable; both the clad and the silver sets.
People brought both types to the show to determine their current value and to decide if they wanted to keep or sell their modern proof sets.
On a different note, people are still interested in numismatic coins. For example, people looked for better date Buffalo nickel coins on the bourse.
In addition, there was discussion about the 2025 Gold (not golden) Sacagawea coin.
The US Mint, in honor of the 25th anniversary of the golden Sacagawea dollar coin, produced a 24-karat one half ounce gold proof coin utilizing the original Sacagawea design.

The US Mint, in honor of the 25th anniversary of the golden Sacagawea dollar coin, produced a 24-karat one half ounce gold proof coin utilizing the original Sacagawea design.
The 2025 Gold Sacagawea dollar coin looks very similar to a golden variety from the early 2000s. However, the weight will be different. The Gold dollar contains 0.5 troy ounce of gold while the golden dollar weighs 8.1 grams or 0.26 troy ounces.
True, the gold coin of 2025 and the manganese brass coating of the golden dollars are different colors. But, perhaps not as significantly different that they couldn't be confused.
It would be disconcerting to trade a 2025 gold dollar coin for a dollar's worth of goods or cash.
The most obvious difference would be in the design. The Sacagawea obverse and eagle reverse dated 2025 will only be gold.
Once again, the May Greater Atlanta Coin Show provided an opportunity for buying, selling, trading or just browsing among the variety of collectibles.

Each month the ladies introduce a couple of new items to see what people like the best. People enjoy being able to grab something to eat while at the show.
Also, the son of one of our dealers offers a variety of soft drinks and a few packaged snack items for those just wanting a quick snack.
The May show enjoyed a good crowd and lots of new faces too. Welcome back to those returning to the show and a big WELCOME to the newcomers as well. We hope you can visit us again soon.

First introduced in 2000, the obverse shows Sacagawea in three quarter profile with her son on her back. Glenda Goodacre designed this image with Randy'L He-dow Teton as her model.
The reverse design used the original elements from 2000-2008 showing a soaring eagle surrounded by 17 stars representing the states in the Union when the Lewis and Clark expedition occurred. Former Mint Medallic Artist Thomas D. Rogers produced the design.
The Sacagawea golden dollar began in 2000 with its manganese brass coating providing the distinctive color. In 2009, the coin became the Native American $1 coin program with a new reverse each year commemorating Native American life.
