<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lackluster, post: 906453, member: 21103&quot;]I go to the local consinment auction occaisionally when they have coiins and have bought a few things reasonable, but most go pretty high.&nbsp; I do recall an estate auction years ago that advertised coins&nbsp; (nothing specified) along with all the household things. I looked all over the place and never saw any coins.&nbsp; Finally I asked someone working the auction and they said the auctioneer had them in his pocket.&nbsp; This was before the auction started.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So I asked him and he pulled out a baggie with some buffalos and some indian heads and 2 walkers.&nbsp; Everthing was common except all of the indians were in the 60&#039;s and 70&#039;s.&nbsp; Anyway when they sold them they said 20 buffalos so much each x 20.&nbsp; then walkers so much each x2.&nbsp; The indina heads so much each x 20 or so.&nbsp; I ended up paying 1.25 each and if I recall selling them ranging from $6 or so up to about $30 each.&nbsp; This was about 20 years ago so the 1.25 was too high for commoms.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I also remember paying $130 for a 73 Brown Ike at an auction and that was a good price at that time (ugg).&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Auctions are fun, but I like an estate auction that also has some coins instead of just a coin auction.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Lack[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
