Wow ... looks expensive to me for what I am seeing in the lot.
Best advise I can offer is to choose a collecting theme ... IMHO these e-pray mixed lots of various stuff rarely pay off relative to the price you pay for them.
Show us some photos when it arrives ... perhaps I have it wrong.

dang,
that's a lot of random stuff!
if some of the items are up your alley, then there are certainly a lot of things to browse through for not really that much cash in the end.

That could keep you busy just looking at each individual piece, one at a time. There are pieces in there I either own or have talked about recently. Like that 6 cent Roosevelt stamp. I've recently started collecting stamps again, and was just talking about it with my wife. I remember when it, and your 5 cent Washington stamp, were the stamps you licked and used. Also the 1976 Bicentennial First Day Cover that is there. It actually is part of a series that the Post Office did for a few years each 4th of July leading up to the Bicentennial. The different medals included in each one is the kicker that made me get these.

Quote:"Full Lincoln Wheat penny Set Version 2". What do you think that means? It means it starts with 1941. It's one of the old, blue Whitman "Penny Boards". |

Did the "shotgun" roll get you anything?
I try to stay away from those mixed lots, hard to price them.

looking at the description, it looks like a very well put together sales ploy.
the only silver in the lot is the 1921 morgan.
the silver certs, $1 and $5, are worth about face, maybe a few bucks more, if that.
everything else looks like random "junk"
i am sorry if I come off as rude. why you bought it is your deal. in my opinion, "how did you do?", not so great, just overpaid for a morgan and some silver certs.
