<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 649949, member: 4552"]At one coin show I go to I started talking to one dealer where him and his wife worked a table together. Did a lot of talking since both are Cancer survivors. They are rather on the smaller side of dealers but are at that same show all the time. Most of thier items are Proofs and/or Uncirc's in 2x2's and they do fantastic buisness at these shows. And they found you don't have to be rich to start. What they do is order large amounts of Proof sets from the Mint, break them open, place each coin in a 2x2. As for the Uncirc's, they know someone in a bank that gets them rolls of new coins and those also go into 2x2's as Uncirc's. They have a small amount of other coins that is slowly growing but thier main selling is those proof and uncirc coins. Now think of it. They get the Uncirc's for face, throw in the cost of the 2x2 and now sell each one for a profit.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
