The Northwest Valley Coin & Card Show sets up roughly 40 tables at the DoubleTree by Hilton Phoenix North on Saturday, August 22, 2026, mixing trading cards with coins and currency in a free, easygoing hotel show that has become a north Phoenix staple. If you collect on both sides of the hobby fence — cardboard and numismatics — this is one of the few Valley shows where you can work both in a single morning.
On the card side, expect sports cards across baseball, football, basketball, and hockey, from vintage singles and complete sets to modern rookies, parallels, and graded slabs. Pokémon and other trading card games appear at a growing number of tables, along with sealed product and bargain boxes. The coin side brings US type coins, silver dollars, bullion, world coins, and paper currency, and several dealers cross over — the same table might have a case of Morgan dollars next to a case of graded rookie cards. Sports memorabilia, autographs, and other collectibles fill in the edges of the room.
Hours are 9:00 AM to 2:30 PM, a single clear Saturday window. Admission is free, there is no VIP tier or advance ticketing, and children accompanied by adults are welcome — this is a comfortable first show for a young collector, particularly one curious about both coins and cards.
The DoubleTree by Hilton Phoenix North sits at 10220 N Metro Pkwy E, just off I-17 near Metrocenter and Peoria Avenue, making it an easy exit-and-park stop from anywhere along the I-17 corridor. Free self-parking is available in the hotel lot, and the air-conditioned ballroom keeps the August heat where it belongs. Restaurants and fast-casual options line the surrounding Metro Parkway area for a post-show lunch.
This show suits casual collectors, set builders, silver stackers, and families better than almost any show in the Valley, because the free door and compact 40-table floor make it a zero-commitment visit. Serious collectors still have reasons to come: coin-and-card crossover shows are famous for mispriced inventory on both sides, since dealers tend to specialize in one and price the other loosely. That is exactly the inefficiency sharp buyers hunt for.
Tips for the day: arrive near the 9:00 AM open, especially if you are hunting silver or vintage cards, as both move early. Bring cash — the coin side of the room in particular runs on it, and cash offers on cards get the best responses. Know your spot prices if you are buying bullion, and bring a loupe for raw vintage cards and coins alike. If you have a collection to sell, this show's dealers actively buy, and getting two or three competing offers in one room is easy with 40 tables.
