Bought some junk today

Went to the B&M store this morning and bought some junk silver quarters and dimes. Got them home and was about to just drop them into the junk bag and thought well I'll just look them over real quickly. Nothing special except an 1854O seated dime with arrows. Full Liberty about a 12, but had a rim ding. Just set it aside in a flip. Lesson learned, always check your junk silver.

    Yes...because we need more "too good for junk...not good enough to have encapsulated " examples! :)

    Sweet, ended up with 3 seated dimes in a bulk junk purchase recently. Fine at best and common date but nice surprise when I was expecting pre 65 Roosies

    The whole worlds off its rocker, buy Gold™.
