Thanks guys! He had a lot of unc tubes by year which made it fun for hours looking through to get the best coin. Which I may add that about all I found looked to have fbl's. I'm hoping that these sets will peak in interest in years to come as well.

Wow. Maybe I should have bought my daughter an xbox. She would of used it for a couple of weeks, then I could sell it. Now I have to look around the house and see what I can get rid of.
I hear a lot that coins are not a great investment but if you look at the junk you buy around your house, just ask yourself how bad of an investment are coins? I think I will keep buying coins. Nice coins by the way.

Nice deal, I got a similar deal yesterday, but my xbox is still right next to the TV in my house. 1858 LG Letters Flying Eagle cent - F -$20 1883 No "Cents" V-Nickel - F - $7 Despite some verdigris damage on the FE I think I got a great deal! |

I'm not sure I could convince the kids to part with any of the game systems....PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox 360 and a Wii.

as long as your happy thats great! Great investment too, in a few years from now that Xbox will have lost most of its value but your silver will maintain or go up!

Come to think of it...the ps3/xbox have been just sitting there collecting dust. Don't think my girlfriend would be happy if I brought home a couple "dollars" for the two.  |

I sold my Nintendo NES and bought coins with it. I was the original owner, think I got about $50 shipped. Used it to fill in my Buffalo nickels and a few IHC. |

Thats exactly how to do it!
I did the same thing last year to fund the purchase of silver coins. I sold everything from old computer games, paintball guns and even some name brand dress shoes I never used. :)

wow guys I am glad I could spur you all on to get some spring cleaning done early! I've started to look around as well at other stuff I wouldnt mind seeing gone. my wife is totally on board to becuase she sees it more for the investment side whereas I am just having a ball collecting!
next thing to go may be my road bike I used to race with in college... I could knock off a merc 16-d and a 1909-s vdb with that!
