Archraz: ...sometimes you can find some awesome stuff in the Bargain Box. Like my VF-20 1934-S Peace dollar and my AG-3 1894-S Morgan!  I've also acquired silver coins for less than their melt value (on several occasions) from Bargain Bins/Boxes/etc. (especially when silver was around $20/oz. early in 2008!) If one had enough time and luck, their Bargain Box collection could in fact be pretty awesome! |

I've found so many great coins at flea markets and from people that usually DUMP all the coins in large bins. At one coin show a dealer has a JUNK box I always go through. He is one of those dealers that a coin worth less than a few thousand dollars is just junk. I spend a lot of time in that box.

The ashtray in the F150 falls on the floor again from the weight of change, and you find a 1999 Delaware State Quarter! or You upgrade the fusebox in the house and you end up with 5 pre war wheat cents! |

your upgrade is a verdigras laden, corroded coin with black splotches all over it- but at least it hadn't been cleaned.
