PROFIT I am just so happy to be able to start a collection of Benjamin half dollars and Walking Liberty half dollars. What I thought was great is that I got the Walking Liberty half dollars for only $580.

thanks I was really happy to get these.
haha thats true CoinsKelly its only a profit if you sell. But I like to hord and trade with the idea of passing them down.
yeah. well Williamson there 1967 half dollar in that set too with that 1967 penny. This site is usually high with selling but there was an error in the pictures so for the quarter dime and benjamin half dollar set there was only 2 of the 3 sections showing so everyone else bid on the part that they could see but I knew there was more (5 benjamin half dollars, 20 silver dimes and about 10 silver quarters more on the 3rd section of each folder)
so I snagged the folders under spot by about $20-50.
The other auction site I use rarely gets coins but when they do its usually cheap. I got 2X1996 mint set (both with 1996-W dime) for $12 and 2X1987 mint sets for $12.

Holy guacamole ... some day I'm going to have to check out estate sales. Not even sure where I'd start to look to find one!
