The COINBERT one is fun.
But in all honesty, the is no negotiating whatsoever during coin shows?

I have been in that same spot more than once. Dealer would not budge. I moved on, did not find anything comparable at any of the other tables, then came back and paid what they wanted. One time I felt lucky because when I came back someone in front of me was holding my coin! They were having the same conversation I had earlier! Luckily they moved along and I got what I wanted to own for more than I wanted to spend. I do not regret it though.  I guess I am even luckier these dealers did not raise their prices when I came back.  |

In Coinbert if I was the dealer
Sure I can change $100 (give back $45)
Hey I thought we agreed to $49!
The other six dollar charge was because you lied when you said that all the cash you had on you was $30.

The Coinbert comic was fantastic. Witnessed versions of that conversation more than once.  |

Counterfeits of the new silver dollar are already in circulation. Young Mikauber, who is always financially depressed, says the bogus coin may be easily detected. ''If I get a new dollar," he explains, ''it is counterfeit; if I don't get one, it is genuine." — Vorr. Herald.
The Brooklyn Union-Argus finds on the reverse side of the new silver dollar an " eagle in a spasm, as if it had been exposed two hours in an amateur shooting-match without being hit."— Worcester Press
