I live in Northern Ireland so I dont really collect US coins but I seen these 6 uncirculated Sacagawea dollars at a car bootsale today I paid three pound fifty for the lot . here they are . 2000-D 2001-P 2002-P 2003-P 2004-D 2005-P I also got 2 proof clad kennedy halfs . 1988-S 1990-S I paid three pound fifty for those 2 also (as a lot that is not seperate) I paid 7 pound for the lot. Is that good? If anyone would like to comment on if I paid too much or if I got a bargain . Thanks John       |

I think you got a great deal. According to my quick calculations you paid slightly under face value for the Sacagawea coins and about what the Kennedy proofs bring in the States. Good for you. I love sales such as this, I've been known to find the coolest things in the oddest places.
I think the Sacagaweas are going to see an increase in value in the future. I like them and find them fascinating to collect.

Another factor which leads this to be a good deal and is the postage saved for not having these sent over from the US.
I agree that you obtain the dollar coins for just under face value.

I think the poster might get hooked on Kennedy's since he picked up two proof ones already.

Yeah a car boot sale is a place inside or out were people sell whatever they want and at the end of the day they pack their things up into the car and go home(my mum and dad and me actually go to sell(or in this case buy)at that bootsale every week.
No teach I have never heard of that name here in the north ,sorry.
