My buddy called me today saying he had some coins to sell to raise some need cash.....I bought 10 Walking Liberty half-dollar coins for $60 and 2 Canadian Maple Leaf Silver Oz. Coins for $32. I paid about $.15 over spot for the Liberties, according to Coinflation.com, but I feel that I got a good deal for $92......

| Pretty good, yes. It is always nice to have friends who are willing to sell their stuff to you directly instead of some coin dealer. |

| Good for both of you. Your friend got more money than he would selling it to a dealer and you got them cheaper than buying from a dealer. |

| Yes, if you can purchase silver at spot price, or any precious metals for that matter, you're getting a great deal! Excellent find on the Maple Leaves, those usually have a high premium attached to them around 20%! |
You'll probably see me on A&E's Hoarders for silver hoarding someday. |

| I bought some 90% and 40% from a long time friend at spot. The coin dealer wanted to offer him something really low. He has helped me sooo much in the past, I figured this was the least I could do for him. |
