WALKING LIBS AT HOBBY SHOP

[morris0863]

The Tiny hobby shop in my small town has about 6-8 walkers and they are $7.65 each.. Didn't know what going rate was and E-bay is all over on price but seems to be above $10 each. Should I get em?

Their investor or silver value put them at just over $5.

Their collector or numismatic value will depend upon the date, mintmark, scarcity and yes, condition.

Check your redbook against the exact date, mintmark, scarcity and condition of the Walkers in the hobby shop to get a better idea of whther it is a good deal or not.

Not at that price. thurmownator is correct around $5 and you break even.
Some nice halves are worth more as "silver value" than "collector value"

Check your coin book to see if they are rarer.
I still prefer to pay 50 cents for mine.
