Coin_Guy Valued Member United States 143 Posts	Posted 08/07/2009 9:27 pm Great Deal! Each of those large cents could fetch $10+ and that Morgan I would say at least 30+. Good for you! Report this Post to the Staff

Tim Stroud Pillar of the Community United States 2661 Posts	Posted 08/08/2009 06:58 am I would say that you did very well. That is the type of bargains I look for when making purchases. Report this Post to the Staff
mrwisker Pillar of the Community United States 581 Posts	Posted 08/08/2009 07:37 am Thanks...I am grateful that I didn't get hosed. As I have said before, I am new at this. I joined here on July 9th (has it been a month already?) A few days before that I had only just found the collection from Grandpa The opinions here are valued. As of right now, I carry around a few books to do some research on the go if need be, but most deals are made spur of the moment. Not a good thing sometimes. (knowing enough to be dangerous to myself) The first deal I made at this same flea market, I actually believed the dealer. I got 2 silver eagles that most likely not be worth combined what a I paid for just one of them. (I hosed myself) The rest of the days purchases should cover my blunder though. It is exciting to see what kind of deals I can make, and what I can find. I do intend on taking pictures of the Wheaties next. I have sorted them and found enough to fill 3/4 or so of the slots in my book marked 1909 to 1919. The pennies were the deal sweetener...you always have to have a sweetener.
