Mineral Show in Copenhagen, Denmark

[kakov]

Back in the 90s when I was living in Denmark, the best show in the country was the one in Ry (Jutland). By then, the ones in Copenhagen were relatively weak. (at least for mineral collectors; they were mostly about lapidary equipment and material). I am curious how this is now, any feedback is appreciated.

Anyone who goes should NOT miss going to the Geology Museum in Copenhagen!!!

I lived in Copenhagen for four-and -a-half years (2011 to 2016) and my experience of this show was also that it isn't one for "serious" mineral collectors...lapidary, collectibles and tchochky.

The Geological Museum, on the other hand, is well worth a visit if you are visiting the city. The Kongsberg silver case alone makes it worth the trip.
