Interesting Trip To Bullion Shop Saturday

So, we have a new bullion shop in our little town. This past Saturday was only my 2nd trip there to sell them my ebay purchases. After conducting our deal and gabbing for a few minutes before I left..I noticed a basket sitting on the counter. On top were some of those silver plated "double Eagles" with gold accents that an unknowing relative might get you for a present. As I was rifling through it, the younger guy said "Those aren't real, they are collectibles...$1 a piece". Then the owner chimes in (an old guy) and they start to make signs to put on the basket.
I started pulling out U.S. commemorative dollars, 1982 Washington halves, Canadian Commemorative dollar sized coins (about $700 worth of silver). Everything in that basket was silver except the couple of those "double eagles" and 1 coin from Liberia. If I were the dishonest type, I could of walked out of there with everything for $25 give or take.
As the younger guy was telling me...that the basket was his mistake...that he bought that stuff...I started sliding the US stuff to him and told him that "I know this is 90%" ...and the Canadian is probably .925 or better...They had a machine right there on the counter that told them silver content even in the capsule. They gave me one of the commemorative dollars for my honesty. ( later the owner said he knew who he purchased the Washington halves from...and he owed them some money)
Before I left, I told them I'd be selling them that dollar in a couple of weeks....The owner asked if I wanted $40 on the spot. I took it.
