A nice little pick from the local pawn shop

I ususally try to stop in a few times a month to see if they have anything good. Usually not the case but today they had 5 morgans all in the XF-AU for $50.00 each. I wasn't about to pay that for any of them but the last one I saw was a nice solid XF40 with a decent shot at a 45. I was able to talk him down to $35 for the coin. I will try and get photos of it shortly.

    He's bragging about his negotiation skills... the seller wanted $50, he purchased the coin for $35. Now he's able to tell his wife he just saved $15 today. You guys aren't picking up on the obvious lesson! image

    Oh yeah, I have used that tactic before with my wife..........

    Her: YOU paid $1500 for that coin?!?!?!?!......
    Me: YES, but the estimate was $1750-2500

    You are now obligated to perpetuate the honorable military code of "paying it forward". I expect you will offer that AU-58 '84-S for $100. image

    Semi key it is! Key date if it was better grade!
