So wait....
He sold several coins including one that, if genuine would be worth 42K, yet the total of his sales were $4250? Super shady! How did that exchange go?
Guy: Hi, I got this coin worth 42k.
Pawn shop: Well, we'll offer you 2k for it.
Guy: Sure.
Pawn shop: This is probably genuine...

I'm familiar with the owner of one of those shops and he is "famed" for offering stupid cheap prices on anything collectible including coins and tokens.

Offered $1200 for a 1908 D no motto St. Gauden in MS 67.

There are many types of bottom-feeders and it appears that two of them met up here. Hard to prefer either side of the transaction since both sides are slimy.
