A Good Day At The Shoo~

I wasn't sure where to put this thread but here goes.

It was a good day at the shop - at least for the boss.

We had a few collections come in right after one another. I had just finished buying one and in walks another. Nothing major - we paid $600 for the whole set.
Quite a few V nickels and a good smattering of Indian cents. Seemed to be the common dates I'm used to seeing so I make an offer and the guy sells the whole thing.

I started sorting after lunch. First I dug into the Indians. Found a few from the 1880s and 90s but basically your typical lot loaded with 1907s. UNTIL I stumbled on the 1909-S. A solid F12 coin that is already headed to NGC.

Next I started in with the V nickels. Many were in rolls with the dates marked on them. Probably 98% post 1900. Of course I'm checking the 1912s for mintmarks and I found 5 12-D. Then, you guessed it, a nice 1912-S. Headed to NGC as well. I'd put it an VG10.

So the boss is happy. Two coins will pay for the collection basically.

I also bought a few coins and tend to get good prices especially on a day like today. I bought all of the 12-D V nickels. Under rated date IMHO and I'm working on a roll.
Also picked up an 1897-S Barber quarter for my Barber set. The price was right.
