[QUOTE="jaceravone, post: 681402, member: 9474"]So here is the follow up.... I pull up to work and I see this guy. He pulls out a baggy full of coins and starts shaking it as he was so excited that I can see his coins. This is what he had.... 16 Wheaties..... a 1911 which was very badly corroded with verdigris, a 1920 in good condition and the rest in the 40's and 50's. 1 Liberty Head Nickel in good condition (Liberty on head not readable) - 1912 1 Barber Head Dime in good condition 2 Mercury dimes in good condition (42 and 45) 2 silver Roosevelt dimes in good condition (46 and 63) 1 1951 Washington Quarter in good condition Basically all pocket change pulled from circulation. After looking over the coins carefully and verifying that there was nothing valuable, I determined what I would pay him and offered him the money..... So what would you have paid for all that? Keep in mind, silver at the time was around $15.60/oz. I would like to hear some offers and then I will let you all know what I ended up paying him.[/QUOTE]
