[QUOTE="ikandiggit, post: 1513943, member: 16269"]They are (were.... I've already flipped them:D) pre-1966 silver with a few '67s tossed in. Canadian btw. There were a few pre-1940 dimes which brought more than melt. Also, not shown was a small album with four silver quarters and another $10 in modern common stuff. It turns out the quarter rolls were short 3 quarters per roll.:o There weren't any errors or anything really outstanding. I sold it for over $600 and still have some leftovers. The comments regarding the purchase offer being too low (- "okay for me but not for dealers...) really shouldn't apply here. If I was doing an appraisal and gave them a [I]really[/I] low value, then I would say that it was unethical. However, because at a yard sale it's the seller that does the pricing and accepts or rejects offers. For all I know, they may have accepted an offer of 2x face and been happy with it. But I didn't do that and gave them what I thought was a good starting offer which they could have countered but instead they accepted. I slept pretty good last night.[/QUOTE]
