He would not pull the whole tray out, I had to select through the glass and he would pull it from the tray and place it on the counter.
My first time in his shop maybe that's why, don't know. I started looking at 7/8 varieties through a loupe, that were marked Strong, they were not. The best one had 3 tips showing. I could tell he was getting tired of pulling out pieces and thought the 79P looked good for the price. It was a very dry experience as he didn't want to talk about anything.

I still dig it. Nice coin.
It was a coin shop. I can understand why you wouldn't want to place a tray on the counter but the place was littered with cameras.
You had to be buzzed in and buzzed out. It was uncomfortable, maybe it will change if I frequent his shop.
Anyway, I like the coin

<< <i>I'd go back soon to look at more stuff, and see if you are recognized and treated better. You'll either leave with more coins and a better feeling about the shop, or you'll make it a short, final visit. >>

As to your experience with the shop... based on what you said (the buzzer, multiple cameras, etc.), maybe this guy's been hit a couple times and is gunshy about putting a lot of stuff out on the counter, or maybe he gets a lot of lookie-lous who don't buy much. I'd take the advice given earlier and give the guy another shot. Now you're a known buyer his attitude might change.

I haven't been a shop and actually bought a coin in over fifteen years.

I think they get a bit fussier when putting slightly better dates like this in 65 holders. But this would compare well to many 65 common dates I've seen.
