[QUOTE="VTCoins, post: 286540, member: 10494"]Last week I went to a two day local auction that was exclusively coins. It was quite an experience! I had previewed most of the lots before the auction, so I had a pretty good idea what was being sold. One bidder was paying absolutely insane money for quite a few of the lots, but I was able to win quite a few pieces. One lot that was described in the catalog as "5.9 Pounds of Wheat Cents" had 230 1909 VDB cents in it. Unfortunately, a fellow dealer noticed the lot so I had to pay a bunch for that one. I also won a lot that was described as "Roll of Washington Quarters 1932-1939" that included 17 uncish 1934 coins and 10 1932 XF/AU coins. One of my interesting lots was a roll of quarters that was described as "Washington Quarters/D Mint/30-40-50s" that included the coins listed below. I paid $88 for the roll.
