Local coin club show today

My main purpose in going was to sell a 10oz silver bar and circulated IKE dollars. Fewer dealers than usual there today. Floor traffic was good at opening when I was there. I'm sure it'll die out during the Bills game today.

I sold the generic 10oz bar for $250. which is what I expected. I was offered $1.10 each for the IKE dollars which I quickly accepted. While there I bought 4 pre-1921 Morgan Dollars. I paid $30 each. Here are a couple images taken with my new phone.

    I'm surprised dealers pay that much for common Ikes. Is that typical?

    Bag price is up around $1.30 or so. Depends on how many you have.

    They are popular with flea market sellers who charge $2 each for them. They are big US coins that are popular with impulse buyers at flea markets.
