<p>[QUOTE=&quot;clembo, post: 614993, member: 8033&quot;]Beauty is in the eye of the beholder I reckon.</p><p>Some are actually hand painted and cost a lot more.

This generally turns into a lose/lose situation if my boss actually buys them and unfortunately he does.</p><p><br /></p><p>Let&#039;s say someone paid only $19.99 for a five coin set of colorized or gold plated.&nbsp; Depending on his mood the boss might offer anywhere from $2-5 for the set. Set will then go in a display case at anywhere from $6.95-9.95. There it will sit for the next millenium.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, if the boss is out my coworker and I have our buy price. It&#039;s generally &quot;we&#039;re not interested sorry&quot; or &quot;I&#039;ll give you face value for them&quot;.</p><p>This may sound brutal but we don&#039;t need them. Sometimes people sell them.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have a nearly complete set of State quarters (1 for each state) that goes in a framed map for hanging on a wall. The boss actually had NO interest even when the guy said he&#039;d take face value just for the coins. Boss asked if I wanted so why not? I paid a quarter for each quarter and nothing for the rest.</p><p>At some point somebody paid way too much for that. I&#039;ll dump it someday in a yard sale I suppose.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
