<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wxcoin, post: 3278504, member: 74624&quot;]I ran into a similar situation with an elderly friend who inherited her mothers coin collection and knew nothing about coin.&nbsp; I spent the better part of a week going through over thousands of US and foreign coins.&nbsp; I was able to weed out a few of the more valuable coins and send them to NGC for grading; I figured i could help her sell those in an online auction (Great Collections), getting more money than what a dealer would give her.&nbsp; After organizing the rest of the collection I took my friend and her collection to a dealer friend who bought everything except the coins that got slabbed and sold by Great Collections.&nbsp; My dealer friend and I spent about 6 hours going through the lot.&nbsp; My friend was there during the process and learned a lot about what her mother collected.&nbsp; Of course, the many gold coins had the most value.&nbsp; In the end my friend ended up with a check that was many times more than what she expected and felt very comfortable about the whole process.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sure, I could have helped her sell the coins going the ebay route and probably ended up with more money (maybe) but it wouldn&#039;t have been profitable considering the time and effort that would have been involved on both our parts.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
