<p>[QUOTE="Nathan B., post: 4603115, member: 112852"]Donna, I am not advising that you sell this coin, but I do think there's something to be said for the experience of selling a coin from one's collection. Can I ask if you've ever done this before? (If the answer is "many times" then please forgive me! In that case, I guess you're mostly asking for a market appraisal of your coin, in which case I can't help you as I don't have the knowledge.)</p><p><br /></p><p>I've learned the hard way that there is often no relationship between what I've paid for a coin and what I can sell it for, as there are several variables that can have a significant effect on the coin's resale value. Having an awareness of just how much of a loss one will usually take on a coin purchased in the last decade or two can help to inform your future buys. At least, that's been my experience.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
