<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AtlantaMan, post: 26187270, member: 158885&quot;]Hi,</p><p>I am charged with liquidating an estate.&nbsp; In that estate is a coin collection with about 500+ Walkers from the 1940&#039;s.&nbsp; No rare dates or mint errors, just plain vanilla Walkers whose condition would probably be rated Good to Fine.&nbsp; An example is shown below.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I can sell them on USA Coin Book (to keep the costs low).&nbsp; If I received gross proceeds from the auction of, maybe, $13.50, then after commissions, listing fees and mailing ($1.19 for a 1-ounce non-machinable letter) I net about $11.80.&nbsp; I have an account at a commercial smelter who, as of this writing with silver at $32.85 per ounce, will pay me $11.34 per coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have to liquidate the coins.&nbsp; I could sell them on USA Coin Book in lots to reduce the hassle, but I am unsure who is going to want lots of 10, 20 or 50 1940&#039;s Walkers. </p><p><br /></p><p>Melting them seems to be the most direct route, but I am unsure if I have missed something.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>1) Have I underestimated the auction value if I sold them through USA Coin Book?</p><p>2) Would bidders really want lots of 10 to 50 plain vanilla Walkers?</p><p>3) Is there something else that I am not seeing?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Any guidance is most appreciated.&nbsp; Thanks!</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1671902[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1671903[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
