Antique Shop Finds

I hit the antique shops again today. Picked up a 1986 Statue of Liberty silver dollar proof without any of the packaging except for the airtite for $4.50. I also bought a 1994 Silver Proof Set for $11.25. There is a slight tear in the outer blue envelop but the coins appear to be at least PF68 and maybe higher.

It was a good day. :thumb:

Nice Finds!

 

The 94 is a nice price 11.25 / 1994 silver proof set is a 40.00 item

 

I've seen it for $36, but this seemed pretty good. The $1 coin was below melt value so that was impossible to resist.

 

My 94 silver proofs are all in black packaging....but you said yours was blue?

 

if blue, then it is probably the regular, not silver.

 

dang, nice finds

 

you are right it should be a black box

 

Yeah, not silver then. Still ok. Is the other proof FDC ?

 

I asked my wife and the packaging is black, not blue. I'm a little color-blind with dark colors and sometimes navy and black look the same to me. But the word silver is there and it is definitely the silver proof set. Thanks for the observation so I could double-check it.

Nice finds at a good price!

I have an antique mall down the road from me, I have not searched there yet for specific coins, I will have to go this weekend.

How would I know if they are ripping me off or not?
