splatto Valued Member Canada 426 Posts	Posted 05/07/2011 8:54 pm I'm visiting my in laws in Peel region during the Mother's Day weekend and wandered into a coin shop as my wife was getting her hair done. The guy had a modest collection - he seemed mainly to be into comic books and baseball cards. I went through the top of his large junk bin and found a 1946 arrowhead 5 cent coin - fifty cents like every other coin inside. I picked up a couple of UNC pennies from the same bin just to keep him from examining my nickle too closely, and also grabbed a 25 cent 1915 key date in VF. I've got to say I'm pretty happy about that arrowhead in particular. He had the same coin in 2x2s in a jewel case in similar condition going for roughly $15. I grabbed a virtual identical coin for 1/30th of that Report this Post to the Staff

splatto Valued Member Canada 426 Posts	Posted 05/08/2011 5:23 pm Just to clarify - I didn't get the 1915 $0.25 in the junk bin, unfortunatly. It was also behind the jewel case, and I paid about 85% of trends for it Report this Post to the Staff
