Hope he turns you down.

It's really hard to say without seeing what he has. You have to assume the Merc's at melt ($85-90'ish). Nickels circulated and maybe 2-3x(?) face ($($12-15) Wheats and coppers at 3-4 cents each ($10-20?). He should just give you the books.

Until proven that something is high grade or variety, you have to assume the worst. I don't see more than about $120 tops that I would give sight unseen.

Just another "opinion".

Are the halves included? If so it's a steal at $200. If not it's a gamble on the nickels and cents to make up the rest of the $200 after the Mercurys.

I hate craigslist for coins... For me it has gone 3 ways. They don't list a price than you email and they want some crazy number for their coins, it is an unbelievable deal and you contact them they email you back and confirm they are still avaiable and then you never hear from them again, or it is some great deal you show up to look at the coins and it looks horrible compared to their pictures and you wasted time and gas to meet them.

im from buffalo and use craigslist too!
check it daily
only actually bought something once
People think their crap is worth hundreds
people get sooooo offended when you offer them money too
they always say you are too low
I hate it when people dont have an asking price
I'm in west seneca where about are you located
we can exchange dump bank sites so we dont pick up each others coin!
