So my wife is having a garage sale today.

I have about 1200 wheat cents in a jar. I told her to throw a price of $60 bucks on it which is about $.05 each. This is about the market value right?

Some guy comes up to her sale and tells her they are worth $.015 each if she is lucky and laughs at her for trying to sell them for more. What a "Censored"!

Of course my wife is mad at me for embarrassing her with my coin hobby again. She was embarrassed before when I gave her dollar coins to spend.

He'll be back to offer her $25 later on today

He was hoping you guys didn't know what you had and could snipe them at a fraction of what they are worth. I think many of of would have tried the same at a garage sale. I know I would have.

However... I woulda punched the guy in the face for laughing at my wife. Uncalled for.

Halfwitty - you forgot that he'd put a worn out Barber dime on one end and a 1916 Wheat on the other so someone would pay $20 a roll.
