coinsrus Valued Member United States 227 Posts	Posted 08/20/2008 1:32 pm Sorry No prizes. I visited a coin shop today and purchased five coins.(pictured Below) Take your best guess at what I payed for them. Information that may help. Bought from a local dealer. In my experience in dealing with him i'd give him an 9 out of 10 in price fairness. Pretty honest guy. I will announce later tonight what I paid. See who can guess closest. Also if you throw in what you think they might be worth to a private collector it would be much appreciated. We'll see who has the best feel for coin value. Again sorry no prizes.

KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 08/20/2008 2:35 pm Is that a planchet error on the 1865 3CN? I'm not a good guesser on US coins, but why not--$30? (because I like getting steals on coins ) Edited by KurtS 08/20/2008 3:03 pm Report this Post to the Staff

jbuck Moderator United States 187702 Posts	Posted 08/20/2008 2:43 pm I will guess $106 total. I won't break it down individually; Prethen might get mad at me for low-balling the 3CN and the 3CS!

Elimist Pillar of the Community United States 632 Posts	Posted 08/20/2008 5:34 pm I think a EIGHTY dollars would be a crazy good deal for that lot. My ONE local coin shop has treated me very fairly in the past. The guy gives me discounts off the listed price all the time. And the listed price is usually always right around greysheet value. But If I bought all those coins at my local shop, the total would probably be nicely over one hundred dollars. Those are pretty good condition coins. Report this Post to the Staff
