Friend of a friend called. I’ve got some coins…

Says he has 86 silver dollars. I’m figuring a couple hours, worn and bent. Just a quick count. Maybe not

that 1900 o/cc is a sweet piece as well as the trade dollar and the 32d quarter.. probably 1k value in those 3 alone

 

And about 100 Silver Eagles, many slabbed

 

Got your work cut out for you, old boy.

 

WOW! Great "Show-n-Tell."

 

Exactly what does your friend's friend want you to do?

 

I'd be out of my depth...

 

I'm confused. Maybe I didn't read everything. Did you cherry pick or buy the entire lot?

 

The man doesn’t need to sell. That makes it easy. Other than the Morgan and early Indians I own most of them, many in even higher grades. The Onondaga County Numismatic Association has a coin show with 15-20 dealers on third Sunday of the month. I’ll go with him as I know several of the dealers.
Some may never get to the bourse
I’m gonna need VAM help but it’s easy to sell into a silver worldwide shortage. And the Silver dollars could wait till October
Or I could send/deliver some to a VAM expert. Now where do I find one of them?

 

My call to make. Haven’t had but an hour to play yet.

 

Looks like days, if not a few weeks of nothing but fun. Enjoy yourself and may he have a great time as well!

 

That's a pile of silver. Heck, that's a pile of everything.

I was suspicious of the trade dollar, and that made me dubious about whatever came next -- but no, this looks like a regular old accumulation.

Still not sure about the trade dollar, though. It looks to me like the devices are fading into the fields in a couple of places on the obverse, and I don't like the look of the dentils on the reverse. But recent feedback tells me that I've gotten overly skeptical judging photos.

Sure is a good time for him to be selling silver!

 

Nice display of Americana coinage. Hmm. What was this friend's number again? I must have misplace it.
Just kidding. Nice coins!
