[QUOTE="rte, post: 8519940, member: 78199"]I bought a small lot from a guy that inherited some Littleton packaged coins. I had him send me a list, pictures of the coins and Littleton labels. He also has a bunch of mint sets. He wanted me to make offer on the lot. I backed up the grade on the Littleton labels 3 grades... considered the mint sets as packing material...paid up for 2 bust half's in Blanchard holders and melt on a $10 liberty head. I then knocked $100 off rounded down to the nearest dollar and let the seller know what I might pay for the lot. The seller asked if I was sure about my estimate?? I double checked and said if it's what you say they are Yes. I had the seller send the gold piece and bust half's first and I was pleased. Then made a deal on the rest. The seller said I was considerably higher than a local coin shop offered. Some of those prices on the Littleton labels (yikes) I paid the seller about 30% of Littleton marked prices. I got rid of some coins I didn't want and both parties were happy. Remember buy the coin not the holder. Tried my best to get a feel for when the sellers father bought the coins from Littleton by decifering the label. [ATTACH=full]1506292[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1506293[/ATTACH] And I got a cool book.
