The BECC held its 55th annual coin show January 19-20, 2019 at the Kent Commons, 525 4th Avenue North, Kent, Washington. The show is the second largest in the Northwest with about 60 dealers participating and arguably the best liked show as well.  Wooden nickels and elongated cents with the P-51 Mustang design were available at the 2019 coin show until supplies were exhausted. (One free wooden nickel and one free elongated cent per show attendee. Additional cents can usually be purchased.)
