My flea market finds... semi-key date barber quarter for under scrap!

I found these all for 10$ at a local flea market. Finally , I didn't get ripped off! (Btw, I usually get hosed.)

EDIT: Just under 5 Million

 

Like the time I paid 10$ for a fake 1877 Indian head, paid 45$ for a 1899 O morgan just for it to be stolen from under my nose, paid 10$ for a heat damaged silver dime, etc.

 

1892 is the first year so I like those.
Most are worn, slightly above melt. $5 each maybe. Because they are Barbers.

 

1905 is a semi-key date. In G4 it is 30$ on USA coin book.

 

Very worn.(Less than G -04) possibly damaged.
Mintage number is pretty high for those prices. Must be a reason why they are priced more than all the others that are lower mintage.
$20 max.

 

Still double what I paid for them all.

 

If your buying coins to make money it does not work unless you manage to find someone that is dumping a collection for a reasonable sum. If you like the coins then you have won the buying game . Liking what you buy is by far the biggest reward for the money spent. who cares if a person over spends once and a while , the important thing is you get enjoyment out of your purchase then it is not a waste of money . this is how I approach the coins I purchase . You got a good deal , enjoy them . Dillan

 

Well actually, I do a bit of both. I collect a bit for myself, and sell a bit for a profit to reimburse my spending. Since I do not have much floating funds, it is my best way of expanding my collection.

 

And thank you.
