    So, who's a creep? Sure would like you to explain yourself.

    I'm in this thing for me. Do you have any idea how many people have been ripped off hard by pawn shops? He excepted my offer.

    I have seen a few 1929-s WLH's that have somewhat PL surfaces. The last one was at an auction about three years ago. That was Truly an amazing coin. While this may have the look of a cleaned coin, it just may not be what it appears to be. Congrats. Take a good look and it just might be submission worthy

    Thanks bud I will take a look.

    If the guy directly approached him, how did he take any business from anyone?

    WHERE did he approach the guy with the coin?
    We had a few....VERY FEW....and QUICKLY sent on their way..... CREEPS ... who "hung around" the door to cadge stuff from people coming in.

    If the buyer found the guy on his own or craigslist or a billboard, then no harm, no foul.

    What does this have to do with finding a coin in the back shelf of a pawn shop display?

    I've lost track of this conversation :neutral: , I thought this was a simple 'walk into the shop and buy a coin' type deal.?

    I understand your point, but according to Drunner's story, the guy approached HIM outside the coin shop, not the other way around.

    Great score crazyhounddog- I've found a few sleepers at Pawn Shops before but nothing like your Walker. You just gave me that urge to hit a few shops this week as it has been about 4 months since I've done my rounds.

    Cool find!

    Cherry picking a pawn shop takes patience and skill. That's not being a creep.
