So I left my number with several jewelry stores in the area that buy scrap gold but do not want to deal numismatic items. It has been a long while since I have had any leads but I got a call yesterday to go look at some coins and bills. The shop owner says the guy is a motivated seller. I made a couple of calls to local law enforcement to see if any coin thefts have occurred recently since the guy was "motivated", and got the all clear. This is what I got. The dude asked $300, I would have gone higher but did not feel like arguing with the man.

Very very nice score.... It is always nice to pick up coins at a price where most any coin shop will
pay you more then you bought them for.

$300 is a superb price. Even paying $20 for each ASE and Morgan would get you to $300.

They guy said he had shopped them around and the best offer he had gotten was $175. I would have offered $350 for this lot, but he named his price before I could make an offer so I took it. The 2 Franklins in the first pic were covered with PVC. I soaked them for about a hour before taking the pics. I have to put them back in for a while when I get back home from work as they still feel a little sticky.

That is most certainly a great score, congratulations! Some of those Morgans look AU or even uncirculated, particularly the 1898!

Very nice score for $300! Congrats, the Morgans and Peaces look AU at the least.

The first three Morgans pictured on the top row, possibly the fourth too, appear to be either (most likely) low MS or high AU. Great deal, congrats!

Sweet deal!! By paying his price you should be assured a call next time he had anything. Great value and ice breaker!
