    I have a set of hardback “A Guide Book of United States Coins” (Red Books) from 1958-2012 (1998 missing) and multiples of a few years and also Handbook of United States Coins (Blue Books) from 1959-1981 plus various years between 1987-1999.

    Does anyone know of a place in Austin area that might want to purchase the collection or where best to advertise them to coin collectors?

    They are sold individually or in small sets on EBay, etc. but I’d like to sell the sets as a whole.

    John Skelton Morgan man!

    Try putting them up for auction. I recently overheard at a LCS that a whole stack of copies of the Red Book 2018 sold for at least $22 per copy to one person at auction.

    Do you recommend a specific auction company?

    Sorry, I can't. I should have asked what company it was.

    Thanks, @green18.

    I missed this one.

    Other than the 1958, small added value, they aren't worth much.
    As you mentioned, ebay is the best to clean out the closet
