Great day at the flea markets

Just thought I'd brag about a great day at the flea markets. Went to 2 different ones this morning and really nothing at the first except cold, damp feet. At the second there was a man that I've only seen selling once before and all coins. I bought the following from him:
Washington Quarter 1960
Roosevelt Divmes 1946, 47, 47D, 47S, 48, 48D, 48S
Lincoln Cents 1930, 54D
All were in 2 x 2 cardboard holders, none were marked with a quality or price. All were in absolutely as new condition as if they were picked up from the mint this morning. No wear, no scratches, just plain new. ALL for $10.00
The last time this guy was there he was almost sold out before the place opened by other dealers but he got there late so no one grabbed him early. He said he used to be a collector but got tired of it all and is now selling off everything for what ever he can get.
Also picked up a copy of Microsoft Piture It, several packages of decorative printer paper with 70 sheets per package fron the person next to him for $3.00
As I said GREAT DAY at the flea markets.

  • Way to go, Carl. Sounds like fun. You might want to get his phone number and see his stuff before he gets to the next flea market.

    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
