I have personally done pretty well flipping $2.5 Gold Indians. They seem to sell pretty cheap around here in auctions, and do fairly well on ebay.
I found a 1921s buffalo nickel in a dump bin at a coin shop and bought it for 25 cents. It was only in G4 grade but stiil not bad! But i am like Mikenoodle, once a coin hits my collection it stays!!!
nice find kiwi, there are certain dates that really get my juices going, and 1921 is one of the magic numbers!
John,finding a 1977 10c. coin from Hutt River in a dealer's stock up in Hamilton for NZ$1.I couldn't turn that coin down.I still have it in my own collection. Aidan.
aidan, something that I have always kinda wondered... your avatar says BC but your location is NZ are you away from home in NZ? is there a BC in NZ? is there a story you can share with me? or it could be just none of my business
Aidan, from the same shop i bought 2 1955 two shoulder dot 3ds for $1 each. One was ave, worth $18 and the other was ef and worth $75. That man doesnt know his coins!!!
