<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 8068330, member: 19463"]The problem you may encounter is that common coins in low grade and harshly cleaned are hard to buy from the big name sellers because it costs so much to list them separately and there is little demand for them among people who know they can get better. That means you need to find trustworthy sources among smaller dealers. These coins are overpriced 2-4x and even at that price you would not be able to sell them to someone else unless you also became an amateur dealer preying on the ignorant. There are several dealers here among the regular posters on Coin Talk. You could do well by contacting them. Our members who spend thousands on each coin do well patronizing big sellers</p><p><br /></p><p>but those simply do not offer $10-$40 coins at any price. You will not get those self slabs but you might get guidance from people not out to sell $10 items for $50. </p><p><br /></p><p>Suggestion: Read the Coin Talk posts and decide who is a dealer and who might be of use to you. I am not a dealer and do not consider it appropriate to run an open list. If you participate here you will see where people are getting low end coins and that we have some decent sources here. You just need to ask.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
