my newest u.s coins

sorry i dont have any pictures yet but im workin on it. just yesterday i acquired a very nice collection of coins from my friends step father, he collects baseball cards and not coins so i was able to trade him my cards for his coins.
now im not the best at figurin out if i got a deal or not so im going to ask all the other collectors out there. i traded probably 60-100 dollars worth of cards and im return i recieved the following
1-1892 indian head cent in vg condition
1-1898 indian head cent in vf
2-1907 indian head cents in vf
1-1908 indian head cent in vf
2-1936 buffalo nickles
1-1937 buffalo niclkle (all are D mintmark but while the date is very readable the mintmarks are pretty much all faded, but u can tell they are D mint)
1-1910 liberty nickle in fine condition
5-1912 liberty nickles also in fine condition
1-1911 barber dime
1-1912 barber dime
2-1912D barber dimes
2-1913 barber dimes
the dimes and buffalo nickles arent graded but they look as good as the others so i would guess and say they are all in at lease fine condition.
i dont know if i made a good trade or not so let me know what u collectors think.
i also got some foreign coins, i posted in world and ancient coins a description of them so if u could take the time to read it and let me know anything u might know about the coins i would appriciate it.
thanks everybody,
Tony


P.S i will put up pictures as soon as i get them

Well if the cards are closer to $60 you probably overspent a little. Of course it really depends on the grades. The question is that if you are happy with the trade then go with that.

 

Sixty dollars "worth" of cards probably equates to $10 or less in the real world (mainly because they're such a tough sell). Put both lots (the cards vs the coins) on eBay, and I'm sure the coins would sell for more. I would make this trade any day of the week (and most of my cards are early 1950's Topps).

 

I was just going to say that baseball cards, or any other sports cards for that matter, have been in the toilet for quite a while now. I have 14,000 baseball cards, 1986-1992, and I would be happy just to break even on them.
