<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jensenbay, post: 2569223, member: 27151&quot;]I had a huge find / purchase today...</p><p><br /></p><p>I went into the grocery to pick up a couple things.&nbsp; I always check the coinstar machine.&nbsp; I walk by and notice that it&#039;s open.&nbsp; The clerk is clearing a bunch of Ikes that had jammed it up.&nbsp; I notice a bunch of silver sitting there as well.&nbsp; I ask the man using the coinstar &quot;do you know those are silver?&quot;&nbsp; He say &quot;yes&quot;.&nbsp; I ask if I can buy them.&nbsp; He agrees.</p><p><br /></p><p>Long story short... His father had passed and he was cashing the coins out.&nbsp; Most were cents but a bunch of other coins as well.&nbsp; We go through what was not already in the machine and I purchased this from him:</p><p><br /></p><p>60 common ikes</p><p>52 silver quarters</p><p>27 silver dimes</p><p>20 90% kennedys</p><p>5 40% kennedys</p><p>2 war nickels</p><p>9 dateless buffalo nickels</p><p>3 wheat cents</p><p>6 steel cents</p><p>and a handful of other, mostly, world coins and he gave me the bag.</p><p><br /></p><p>I gave $280 for the lot.&nbsp; Good thing there was a cash machine next to the coinstar.&nbsp; A good deal for me and a good deal for him.&nbsp; He didn&#039;t want to deal with a shop and I paid less than a shop would sell for... a Win Win.&nbsp; He was going to dump them for face value anyway.&nbsp; I wonder what was already in the machine.&nbsp; It was kicking out silver but may have been keeping some as well.&nbsp; Who knows how many wheat cents went in?&nbsp; No time to look for them at the time.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]555393[/ATTACH]</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[ATTACH=full]555394[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
