Hambone Pillar of the Community United States 609 Posts	Posted 05/28/2011 10:08 am Just got back from my local flea market. I was looking for a good Shield nickel for my type set. The dealer thought he didnt have any, but we looked for a while. Finally when I was about to leave "Ah! here they are. I've got 20 dollars in em. You can have one for 21 dollars". I ended up spending 23 dollars on US coins and a buck on foriegn, but thats for another forum... I gave $21 for the Shield nickel, and $1 a piece for the indian heads. The V nickel was in a foriegn coin bin at 5 for a dollar. Report this Post to the Staff

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 05/29/2011 4:37 pm agreed that nickel is really nice. As to flea markets. A seller at one I go to has bins on his table of US coins and one for foriegn coins. I had to show him he had Shield nickels in the foriegn bin and he insisted they were from some other country since our Nickels just don't look like that. Report this Post to the Staff
