Yesterday we were at our local coin shop getting prices of some coins for a member. As we were in line someone was selling off the dearly departed persons coins and I the clerk said we buy the Canadian coins a a .6 of face and the customer war more than happy. I was more than happy that I knew that I could buy them at a .8 of face and at the coin shop it is first come first served. So we got all of this a a .8 of face.

Can you describe who it was selling these to the coin shop at .6 face?

He was the grandson of the departed. Was clean cut. Did not look like a druggy. It might be a true story.

I just looked at Goggle maps. And it is a 9hr. drive to Canada and a 12 hour drive to Mexico.
