I went to one of the local coin stores as I had about an hour and a half. The dealer had a box of about 2,000 buffs. So I started to search this box. I picked out 20 coins at $.75 = $15.00. My results are as follows:
DATE VALUE
1917-D 2 FEATHER IN GOOD CONDITION (PICS TO FOLLOW) $30.00
1920-S 2 FEATHER IN ABOUT GOOD $3.00
1937-D 2 OR 2 1/2 FEATHERS IN FINE .75
1919 2 1/2 FEATHERS IN AG .75
1929-S 2 1/2 FEATHERS IN FINE 1.25
1936-S/S IN FINE .75
1913-S TYPE 1 IN AG $17.00
1917-S IN AG 8.00
1918 IN GOOD 3.50
1918 IN FINE 5.00
1918-S IN GOOD 10.00
1919-S IN GOOD 6.00
1920-S IN GOOD (3 TIMES) 3.00 X 3 = 9.00
1923-S IN GOOD 5.00
1925-D IN GOOD 7.25
1925-S IN VG 6.75
1926-D IN GOOD 7.25
1929-S IN VF 2.00
I am going to go back and finish the other 90% of the box in a few weeks. Did I come out ahead?

I think so. It's boxes like that where you can find the overlooked stuff.

Nice haul, Anthony! MAYBE a 16/16 in the next haul? Ya know, it MIGHT happen-just ask John (OnWithTheHunt.)
Sounds like fun. Keep on hunting
That seems like fun... and you did get some good coins..... For sure it is worth a trip back. Keep us posted. Cheers, RickO
Nice!

37d three legger too!!

Pick me up some next time you're there!
Nice haul!
$15.00 for an hour and a half entertainment? Yeah you did good.
"I spent 50% of my money on alcohol, women, and gambling. The other half I wasted.
Nothing wrong here. Good pickens

I try to only slab VF or better 2feathers. Other more valuable varieties I would at a much lower grade.
That's a nice start.
I remember doing this about 10 years ago at a coin show up in Cleveland Ohio and I picked up a nice good+
1918/7-d nickel for ten bucks or so. And this dealer also had 1918/7-d coins correctly labeled in his case for
over a grand!
