<p>[QUOTE="bugo, post: 2599383, member: 53226"]This one was slightly less than $50. More specifically, $49 less. That's right, I got it for face value. There is a convenience store I go to often and I got to know the guy who ran it. I asked him to put away "big coins" like halves and a few times he surprised me with a half. I got an Ike once and a 1968 half dollar once. I went in the store one night and asked if they had any "big coins". The cashier said "yes" and pulled this out of the drawer. At first I thought it was an Ike but I was shocked to see that it was an 1884-O Morgan. I gave the cashier a dollar and left before they changed their minds. The night I got it, I was offered $50 for it.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u126/bugo348/IMG_3910_zps317c8420.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u126/bugo348/IMG_3916_zpsa59df177.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
