[QUOTE="eddyk, post: 171492, member: 3712"]After checking most jewellery stores in my town for coins I had some luck the other day....gold coins!!!! There are no coin dealers in my town, so I check the jewellers...but being jewllerys they have put all the coins on rings and necklaces etc. Not souldered....just held in. They had a 1861 2.5 dollar indian head in fantastic condition...didnt see the mintmark...as that side was obscured by a big gold ring....taking the overall price to around $250 I asked the woman their if she could remove it from the ring and sell it to me for less...she said yes, then a guy who also worked there later said 'I wouldn't fancy taking it out of the ring,you would have to do it yourself.' They had a few dozen sovereigns an austrian ducat and thats it. I'd sooner buy things in person, because I know what im getting...and have it right then and there.[/QUOTE]
