Not Beleiving it!!

Nice pickup! And all I can say about the dealer's motives is that he's there to make money, and if you can get a good deal out of one coin from him, you're doing much better than no deal at all. And there are plenty of dealers who won't give you the time of day, let alone chat about their business.

Sounds like my dealer. He'll buy stuff from people for a fair price and turn around and sell it to you for a fair price. Always a good time.

 

Yep,

Mine does the same thing for quick turnover. If I'm there right after he buys something he gives me "first right of refusal" as he calls it.
Now $2 for a Barber that nice. I'VE NEVER CAUGHT HIM IN THAT GOOD OF A MOOD!

Nice coin!

 

I always though your avatar made you look like a serial killer! lol :mouth:

 

Likely the dealer gave 70 to 80 cents for that dime so selling to you $2 was double profit for no labor .. he didn't have to 2x2 it, label, etc..... quick turn. It's basically about a $5 in that condition unless I'm missing something..?

 

Looks more to me like a F-VF but still a good price.

 

it has a complete and strong liberty with nearly complete bands, it doesn't show up well in the picture, never does for some reason. It also has a strong reverse, lots of kernels in the corn, so XF

 

$2 Bucks is a Great Deal BQ.....wow, cant beat that!! NIce coin.

all you guys who say it was all for future profit and he got cheap from the women and think dealers all only out for the money i have had dealers give me good deals in shows were they live in California and i live in maryland so it not a sucker in sale. Some of you got to realize even if you had a bad experience with so dealers no all of them are bad

 

I think everyone here agreed he got a good deal, we all know good dealers and bad dealers, but bottom line they are all in business and have bills and overhead. If a dealer sells a coin to a customer at a loss it was either a mistake or investment for future sales ~ otherwise, they don't stay in business long. And in the condition the coin is in it was likely purchased at a silver value rather than numismatic ~ he said it was part of an entire collection. It's the same reason you can look at the same coin at 5 different tables at a coin show & get 5 different prices ~ it's how much the dealer needs to make to cover their investment & expenses.

 

I would say rather well put CoinGal..well put! :thumb:
