<p>[QUOTE="heuvy31, post: 1675080, member: 42173"]There are 2 LCS near where I work and I decided to check them out for the first time today on my lunch break. The first one I really wouldn't consider a coin shop at all (even though their sign says rare coins). They don't really sell coins. They had a handful out but the guy told me they basically buy silver and gold. So I checked out the other shop. They had plenty on display. I wasn't looking to spend much, just a few bucks on a few common indian heads, buffs or liberty nickels, foreign coins things I don't come by often roll hunting, or even a cool common date silver coin. They did not have foreigns, or liberty nickels, but they did have bags of IHC and buffs. Only problem was they don't let you by single coins out of the bag, you have to buy the whole bag. While I'm in there a guy comes in to sell some coins. I hear the lady working the counter talk about the silver coins he brought in, but also about the IHC, buffs and liberty nickels. So when the guy sells his coins and leaves, I ask her if I can talk a look at the coins she just bought from him. She says, "Those are just silver coins." The IHC's were no longer on the counter, but the buffs and libertys were laying right there on the counter. I didn't want to be rude so I asked her if I could look at them anyway, because I have some silver coins too. She replied, "I'm sorry I can't sell you those." I politely said thank you for your time and left. Is these pretty normal for for LCS visits or just perhaps some bad luck?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
