Coin Show Finds Today

Postby argent_pur » Sat Mar 26, 2011 5:27 pm

This was the first coin show I'd been to in a couple years and I think I snagged some good deals. I bought:

1-1900S Morgan for $28

$16.50FV US 90% for $405.25 I bought all halves, which included (1 Kennedy, 7 Franklins, 15 Walkers, 10 Barbers)

I weighed the coins, multiplied by .9, divided by 31.1 to get ASW in ozt. and found I paid $35.30/oz---2 bucks under spot :) Not a single coin was priced over spot, most were 12 bucks, although I paid 13 bucks each for 2 of the Walkers which are AU condition. All in all it was a fun time and below spot silver is always a good feeling!

Sounds like a good time. That 1900S morgan sounds nice.
