1853 Gold Dollar at a flea market.

I just picked this an hour ago. I had the flea market people call the dealer with my offer of $25. they countered with $28.00. Thank God they answered the phone, as they are more often unavailable then available when you wanna make an offer. Even holed, I'm seeing these sold on eBay at $77., $85. and one made $127.99

It wasn't the best move on the vendors end to answer that phone call and I do think some flea market vendors do avoid answering all calls on the caller ID from their flea market to avoid considering any offers. Without a doubt I would have paid the full price on a card, but I had 29 bucks in my wallet and a pile of change in the cup holder of my truck and I thought what the heck, let's see what happens.
