Silver is KING again

It wasn't the Comstock Lode but it was our best silver sale so far.

We had our sale in Florissant the other day and silver rocked. We had a large amount of silver dimes and other silver coins. We were selling silver dimes at over $100 for $10 in face value of dimes. We had a great day.

I sold choice once and the bidder decided to take 6 tubes each with 100 dimes. We sold choice again and the same bidder won, the price? Same as the first time. And so it went... each time the bidder thought that the next time his luck would change and the dimes would get cheep. The prices held for several rounds. He could have picked all of the tubes the first time and saved us all a lot of time.

Baseball Cards and diabolical dealers

We had an auction this week where we sold a great collection of baseball cards. Most of these cards were from the late 50's and mid 60's, they were from TOPPS and Bowman.

The owner of the cards had taken them to a local dealer and he offered them $1,900 for the cards. They did not take the deal. We put them on our website, held and auction and had buyers show up from 5 states. We got the owners almost 10 times the dealers offer. One of the bidders at the auction has cards from the same collection and has asked us to contact him about selling his part of the collection. Stay tuned....
