Pay the store fees for a month or two on ebay. You will get a discount on FVF's.
Research how other sellers are listing to get the best bang for your buck. They will sell for a premium over melt, especially the Mercs.
A tip, throw in a couple '42s in each lot of Mercs. Make sure buyers can see the dates but don't make the pics big enough to see whether it's the rare variety.

 

Well, soldier, if it's guard duty you want, it's guard duty you'll get. Let's start with 12 on/12 off at the city dump for the next month.

I know you guys are trying to help, but one should not be asking personal questions to newcomers,until you know if they are an adult, it raises flags on family forums ...."Hey mom, this guy wants to know where I live!.....

Welcome RegisG,

Must be the beautiful 20 cent piece. I like these refresher questions.

Thanks,
Regis

 

Including proofs, the 20c was issues 4 years. The $4 gold STella was only 2 years.

 

WOW, talk about a million dollar coin....

 

Was that really underhanded selling tactics 101 right there? ....uch

 

Nothing underhanded at all, in my opinion. As long as you describe it as a lot of Mercs and nothing more. Ebay bidders love to gamble on possible cherrypicks. You're just giving them the opportunity to gamble.

 

So that last part, with the little winky emoticon, that is a "moral" suggestion? Please, what are you, 16?

 

Well, I've got off to a start. Slow but started. Sold some Franklins, Washingtons, and a few certified Panda 10yens. I'd rather turn the Chinese coins into some nice Walking Libertys. I tried starting at $0.99 and at melt value. I'm not really sure which is best other than it is a bit unsettling to have bids at 20% of melt a few hours before ending. Hundreds to go and I'm pretty slow at photograph, write, and post. And, doing that for many many dines will be????? I won't sell rolls because I do want new collectors to have a chance to fill-in a set or series.

But he said NOT including the proof only issues. And the Stella is not a coin, it's a pattern. And it is also proof only for both years.

 

BOOM!
