NEW FOR 2018! We've expanded from a 3-day show to a 5-day show to better serve our customers and attract more dealers from further away. See our website for complete information at www.NYNJ.Show This family-friendly event intends to cater to intermediate and advanced collectors while doing its upmost to create and encourage tomorrow's collectors. Our science and history exhibits get better every year as we get bigger every year. 2018 EXHIBITS: #1: Our premiere exhibit will be Titanoboa: Monster Snake from the Smithsonian Institution. At 48 feet, this mega-snake was longer than a school bus and was at the top of the monster-eat-monster food chain. #2: A brand new panel exhibit from the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) is currently being created and will be ready for the 2018 show. #3: Three times more dinosaur and Ice Age skeletons than the 2017 show, courtesy of Dinosaur Brokers #4: Glowing ultraviolet minerals in the dimmed Jr. Ballroom presented by the Franklin Mineral Museum. They will also have glowing specimens for sale. Your admission ticket supports a $5,000 grant to this worthy non-profit. OTHER COOL STUFF: #1: Every weekend $10 child admission includes their choice of a fossil fish from Wyoming, a Herkimer diamond, a golden cube of Fools' Gold from Spain, a meteorite shard, or a faceted cubic zirconia! #2: Dig for fossils at the PaleoBond booth, sluice for gemstones or crack geodes at the Dinosaurs Rock booth, and test your metal detecting skills at the East Coast Research & Discovery Association booth. #3: Dinosaurs Rock will create a huge 3,000 square foot fossil display. #4: A dozen NJ and NY mineral, fossil, and lapidary clubs, as well as the Geology department of Rutgers University will keep the kids busy with activities, giveaways, and demonstrations. #5: A separate 20,000 square foot 'Wholesale Only' area will be open only to those possessing a sales tax / business license.
