<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 154087, member: 4552"]I go to flea markets all the time. One that I go to on Fridays usually has a guy there that sells all kinds of coins. Several months ago he had a pile of Merc Dimes and I bought them all. Since then he tells me another dealer gets to him at about 5 AM and buys out everything. Last Friday the other guy didn't show up and I was able to buy the following for about $32. 8-Liberty Head Dimes in AG8 condition from 1902 to 14, 34 Mercs from 1923 to 45 in from F12 to AU50, 10 LIncoln Cents all 1943 Steel in AU50 or better. I put them away just as the other dealer walked up that usually buys everything. He went through what was left and bought it all. Then I noticed a really dirty 2"x4" flip with all kinds of writing on it that no one seamed to want. Picked it up and looked closer. There were two 1970S Lincoln Cents in MS60 grade and one had the writing of small date and the other said large date. I held it up and said how about $1. He gladly took the $1. That made my day.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
