My mailman is sending me coin people....

A few minutes ago, a gal and her son walked in to my shop (I'm a computer store). Asked the lady if I could help her, and she looks around and says "I think I may be in the wrong place, I was looking for Nelson's coins". Nelson's coins used to be in the same building as me, but he closed up shop about seven years ago.

So, she tells me that the mailman said to come here because I know all about coins. I think he gets that impression because he delivers piles of them every day.image

Anyway, I told the lady that the only thing I know anything about are Kennedy halves, but I'd try to help her if I could. Turns out her husband is a serious coin guy and she and her son ordered those fake 1933 double eagles as a gift. Company sent them too many, so they were trying to sell them.

Had to give them the bad news.
