<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Speedy, post: 148166, member: 705&quot;]Hey Ya&#039;ll</p><p>Today I tried something that I had never done and it went great!</p><p>I set up at a coin show and sold a good many coins--I was the youngest &quot;dealer&quot; there---</p><p>It all started at 8AM and it closes at 8tonight but I shut up at 2:30PM because I needed to get home---I don&#039;t know if I made money or lost it....I know on a good many coins I made some money but on some I lost....but to me that doesn&#039;t really matter.</p><p>At first I took a lost of $20 on a coin I knew I would because I overpaid when I first started---but then later on I sold a $10 bill that I found in change years ago for $30 so I made my $20 back!</p><p>Another guy traded me some ASE for some silver dollars--I didn&#039;t have the ASE 5min and a guy offered me $20 each---I was thinking more like $14 so I took it!</p><p><br /></p><p>There were only 3 other coin dealers along with 2 knife dealers but there was a good many people showed up to buy and sell.</p><p>One guy wanted help knowing what a Complete Dime set was worth from 1916-1945---it had all of the KEYS and would have graded from G-VF....with the 1916-D being VG.</p><p>He had gotten the set years ago for almost nothing and thought it might be worth something----I along with another dealer both agreed that the 16-D needed to be slabbed but we both also agreed that we thought it was real...I had my counterfiet guide there and both looked at it really good---we both tried to buy it off of him but when he learned that it might be worth over $1,000 he decided to keep it.</p><p>Another few people are going to call me and have me make offers on collections they have gotten years ago!</p><p><br /></p><p>Another guy who really just wanted to show off some of his coins and talk showed me some really cool coins that I had never seen before---then he showed me his 1914-D cent that he had gotten along with almost a complete set---and I&#039;m 99% sure that it was fake...a 1944-D taken down to a 1914-D.</p><p>Also saw a fake 1804 silver dollar---and alot more--some fake and</p><p><br /></p><p>Of the 3 coins I picked up the best one is a 1909-S IHC in VF30 ANACS.</p><p>The coin is really good---hasn&#039;t been messed with and NGC might give it XF since its a KEY date but I don&#039;t thing I&#039;ll try!</p><p>I took the photos in the same type of light but the back turned out lighter than it should have---its a really dark chocolate brown.</p><p><br /></p><p>Most of the people there were just glad to see a young person taking interest in coins enough to set up a table at a show.</p><p>They are planing to do it again and I hope that I can also set up again as it was a fun learning time for me---other collectors willing to tell me what they knew and sit and just talk coins.</p><p>I gave one collector the address to this forum and hope that he will join us here at CoinTalk! :whistle: </p><p><br /></p><p>Hope I haven&#039;t board anyone!</p><p><br /></p><p>Speedy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
