FYI Valued Member United States 177 Posts	Posted 06/05/2006 12:05 am has anyone hear found any really graet deals at a flea market? I have gotten a ton deals on other things, but most coin dealers that I see are irreputable, or overpriced. Report this Post to the Staff

Dog Man Valued Member United States 94 Posts	Posted 06/05/2006 06:53 am I ran a similar thread yesterday. Over the weekend I picked up a couple average date Morgans for $14 a piece. Report this Post to the Staff
Dewayne76 Pillar of the Community United States 590 Posts	Posted 06/05/2006 10:56 pm I was sifting through a bowl of common date Indian cents and found a couple low grade(G-4)1858 Flying Eagle cents for $1.50 each at a local flea market. On another day at the same flea market I was looking through some common date silver Washington quarters and found a 1937S I got it for $1.65. Report this Post to the Staff
swamperbob Pillar of the Community United States 5362 Posts	Posted 06/06/2006 11:13 am There is a local weekly flea market here that attracts a wide range of dealers of all sorts. Last week I was at a friend's coin booth when a friend of his came in with a Chinese Sycee Ingot. He wanted to know if it could possibly be real. Well to make a long story short it was a 7 Tael bar. Nice original piece worth quite a bit given today's silver prices. So he rushed back out. He came back in a few minutes with a second one. He found them being used by a guy selling old magazines as paper weights to hold down his stock in the wind. He got the pair for $20 each! They contain about 6 ounces each of raw silver but have a value of a couple hundred dollars each. Report this Post to the Staff

Dog Man Valued Member United States 94 Posts	Posted 06/13/2006 12:24 pm I hit the flea market again over the weekend. I was able to scoop up a Canadian silver dollar, a Mexican peso, and a Swiss frank all in my wife's birth year. Not bad for all under $15! Report this Post to the Staff
