El Cheapo's coin of the day!

Got this for around $20, flipped it for $45. My dad was sad that I sold it, figured I should have kept it for myself at that price but I was like "i gotta think like a businessman!"

Have another coin I forgot about. Pictures tommorow. Last year I bought a '68 Two cent piece for $10-$12. Can't remember how much exactly, but it was in that area.

Looking at the coin and compared to images in my trime reference it looks like the 005 inverted 1 that's a $2500. coin in G-4!

 

I gave $30 for this one. 1839-O reverse of 38.

 

This was in my Dansco for many years. It's value got to the point that it had to come out. PCGS gave it a 62.

 

It's not

 

First purchase for my new 7070.

 

Yay! Did you get it for an El Cheapo price?

 

$60. I thought it was a good pice considering the look of the coin. It certainly looks better than a lot of the dogs out there.

 

El Cheapo's thread isn't going away anytime soon, y'all, so you may as well join in.

Would you believe $32? It happened! WOW! Nice die clashing on both sides, too!


This one was $29 - best offer on eBay! Can't beat that for an XF Barber!


Couldn't resist this one at $12.50! Plenty of damage, but plenty of detail, and a better date/mintmark!


$9.50 on eBay. Won it at auction. Couple of cool laminations going on with it.

 

Key date 1855 RPD 3 cent silver for $49.95 on eBay as a buy-it-now! WHAT???

 

Nice. I was watching an 1858 half dime with inverted date and killer die clashes but the seller pulled the listing

 

I'll join in. The two cents I picked up for less than $5 total. Not bad.
And the best win I've ever got, a huge lot of Aussie silver for $60 less than melt!

 

eBay best offer for $15!

 

I would name that one "scar face" neat die crack on the cheek.

 

I really hoped it was a D/D but I don't see it in-hand. The guy also had a BU 1937-S Buffalo as well that I got for $15. That one went in my type book. This one will probably cover the cost of both when I sell it. Hopefully.

 

Yeah that's what I looked at first the mm. Since it was enlarged I scanned the obv. And seen the die crack neat coin.

 

This one won't work in my XF-BU type set, but I nabbed this meaty looking 1817 large cent for just $30!

 

TOUGH date!

 

Also got these as a pair, but they cost me $8.21. (Seller's pictures.)

I like the sequential NGC numbering. Trouble is, I got them to replace the corresponding dates I have in my raw set, and now I can't bring myself to crack them out of their nice slabs.
