Wow, that is awesome! And wholesale prices is no lie either. It's a shame there aren't more dealers like that. Congrats

Now that is what I call a really smart coin dealer. Knowing your new and spending time with you, giving you some great deals, helping you as much as possible, is really good buisness. Hopefully he continues that policy. Way to many store owners start out nice and slowly change. You may well have found a great place to buy coins.

Good prices but not anything really special. At the local club meeting Monday we had NGC Franklins MS-63 and 64 and a couple of NGC slabbed proofs from the 58 - 63 years selling for $11 to $13 apiece. The thing is these are still common enough that even in BU these coins are still pretty much bullion value. Even for slabbed ones. I don;t normally collect moderns but at the prices that Franklins sell for I keep thinking I should put together a set in the 63 to 64 range. Even in 64 none of them are out of reach price wise as long as you don't insist on FBL coins.

Conder101. I understand what your saying but the truth is I wasn't really looking for anything special. I'm a college student who was just looking for some good deals on coins to start with. I can always upgrade later but the fact is I got everything for pretty much melt.

Even told me if I bring in worn circulated coins he would just swap them out for me for unc. Coins.
Rest in Peace

Nothing wrong with that. Nothing at all. Always collect what you like.

Told you he'd swap cirulated for uncirculated?

My package to you is on the way, go ahead and swap the coins for the uncirculated ones and send them back...
Just get as close to uncirculated as he can on the 92 s morgan...

Just kidding, but that is pretty unreal. I'd have returned the very next day.

Congrats! It is very nice to see that there are honest dealers out there at B&M shops. I've come across some real dishonest ones, including the guy who told my father in law that he could take home a 1795 dollar for $125 because he wasn't quite sure if it was real. In other words, he knew it was fake and tried to get rid of it and make some dollars. An honest dealer like the one you went to see would have my business for life.
Rest in Peace

No way I'd sell a coin for a nickel on the dollar if a little effort would mean an easy $2000 more in my pocket.
