The Big Coin Show, also known as the Greater Cincinnati Numismatic Exposition, returns to the Sharonville Convention Center with two days dedicated to rare coins, paper currency, bullion, collectibles and numismatic history. One of the region’s premier coin collecting events, the show features hundreds of dealer tables, educational opportunities and unique exhibits for both experienced collectors and newcomers alike.

A featured attraction for 2026 will be a special exhibit showcasing artifacts recovered from the legendary S.S. Central America shipwreck — often referred to as the greatest lost treasure in United States history. Guests will have the opportunity to meet Bob Evans, who led the recovery project that brought more than two tons of gold from depths of 7,200 feet off the Carolina coast. Evans, who also served as curator of the recovery effort, will share insights and discoveries from the historic expedition and answer questions throughout the event. The exhibit will also feature AI-powered animation designed to bring one of the shipwreck’s survivors to life, offering visitors a unique and immersive connection to the story behind the treasure.
