Ok it took me a while but I finally was able to write about my recent coin purchase. I exaggerated a little bit it was not 300 coins more like 250 in total. This was a pretty large purchase for me but I certainly think it was worth it. I'll let you guys be the judge.
I had bought about 40 coins from him previously for $5 a piece but he decided to sell me the rest of the box for one price.
As you can see all of them have price tags of at least $15 with the most expensive being $85
Here's what I got:
92 wheat pennies spanning from 1909-1936

68 "error coins" mostly 1955 poor mans and 1995 Machine Doubling pennies

A coin album from 1909-1940 with 71 coins

The seller also threw in a bunch of little extras including
1828 penny( someone gave her a nose job)
1868 nickel(cull)
1912 nickel(cull)
1863 nickel( at least G04)
1883 nickel no cents(cleaned and artificially toned)
1911 nickel
1935 -37 P nickels
1995 ASE
Two silver dimes
Silver quarter
%40 silver half
Jewelers loupe
And a 2011 black book guide( not really helpful for prices are out of date)

The value was in the wheat pennies and so I took the time to list what I specifically got

1909x 1
1909VBDx1
1910x 1
1910sx 7
1912sx 3
1912dx2
1913sx5
1914x 4
1915sx2
1915dx2
1916sx 7
1920dx 1
1920sx 1
1922dx 6

1928sx 2
1929dx 2

1932x2
1933x4
1934x2
1934dx 2
1935x 5
1936x 1

Every coin listed is fine and above with a couple vg 1910s
Most of them are XF and VF condition and the ones in the 30's are all AU or MS

There are way too many coins to take pictures of so I'll post pictures of my favorites

What do you think I paid for them? I'll reveal the answer in 24 hours
Ill upload more photos as I take them

I'm just giving you guys a heads up it was more than $100 that's all I will say. And I will say that I sold 8 of them for $207 to a coin dealer.
Rest in Peace
