<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Detecto92, post: 1549607, member: 75105&quot;]I used to visit a pawn shop in my town once a month. He did not know much about coins, and I would find a few world silver coins in the 25 cent bin from time to time. However as the months went by, he started getting a little high on his prices. I tried to purchased a couple slabbed Franklin dollars off him, the NGC price was like $32/ea, and they were bringing about $30 each on eBay. He wanted $50 each for them. I tried to talk him down, but he wouldn&#039;t budge. </p><p><br /></p><p>Sometimes he brings coins to a few of the local flea markets, and if he has a bunch of junk silver, he will sell it for melt. This is the same person I got a 1794 Franklin press token for $15 off of and flipped for $127.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think scoring at a pawn shop is all about knowledge. Maybe they got a bunch of junk silver , that they didn&#039;t have the time to sort, and taking the time to look through the lot may yield a few semi-keys or a nice condition coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
