Quote:What are you talking about? You're comparing apples and oranges. That lot doesn't resemble what the OP is talking about because it is a small amount of coins (5 coins?) has a Columbian half, and a semi-key walker. That's nothing like two rolls of 1930's and 1940's Walkers.
Here's a roll of early dates that went for $8.25 a coin;

Also, buying coins from the unwary? If I pay under melt for junk silver from a collection, it's because I'm shelling out a lot of money... I mean, the biggest collection I ever bought had about $1k in junk silver in it, I paid 95% of melt for the junk silver, sold it for 99% of melt. I think I laid out about $25k on that collection.
And for the record, I pay a heck of a lot better than most dealers in B&M's do because I have no real overhead and it's a hobby to me, not a living.
Whatever, you obviously took issue with my post since I paid $10 a piece that included coins with more numismatic value. Good luck with all the acquisitions but I am not getting into this with you. If you don't like what I am posting, don't read it.
