Local Coin Auction Yields Dividends!

... Although they will definitely have to be earned. I have yet to get any pics, but was able to spend $500 (three paychecks this month) and score a ton of lots of coins! Some weren't the best deals since I couldn't get great looks at them while they were in the bags, but a few made it worth it! A few notable bummers were $2.15 in Seated Liberty coinage (I thought an 1854 quarter was about VF-XF... And it was on the obverse only the reverse was basically gone but will be able to get $60 back for paying $100), a "civil war" lot (with 7 flying eagles, some 2 cent pieces and a 3 cent piece will only be able to make my $100 back), and a lot of 173 1910-1919 wheat pennies (paid $40 because I wasn't paying attention and I will be lucky to make half that back. Only saving grace was finding a 1909 and a 1933D in the bag of teen wheats). The ones that make it worth though are a lot of 21 large cents I bought for $100 and will be able to make back about double that and a lot of $8 face Barber coinage I will get about $50 back from. Lastly, I got a lot of foreign coins and notably found a Mauritius 10 rupees (mintage 50k commemorative), "Samoan Visit by the Pope" dollar (35k commemorative) and a 1928 Chinese Honan copper cash coin (not worth much but an awesome dollar sized copper coin. Will try to get pics up as I continue to go through it all! Thanks for tuning in!
