<p>[QUOTE=&quot;FantasiaWHT, post: 1132667, member: 29907&quot;]Hi there, new member!&nbsp; Posted an intro if you want to know more about me.</p><p><br /></p><p>Long story short, I inherited a coin collection decades ago and it&#039;s been sitting alone in the basement since then.</p><p><br /></p><p>Among them are about 12 pounds of wheaties (there may be a few memorials mixed in, but probably less than 1% of them).&nbsp; I estimate something like 1,500 - 2,000 of them.</p><p><br /></p><p>1) What should I do with them?&nbsp; Sell them in bulk?&nbsp; Try and go through them all and catalog everything?&nbsp; Search them all looking for particularly valuable printings?&nbsp; If I sold them in bulk what&#039;s a fair price?</p><p><br /></p><p>2) I think my ultimate goal is to sell most of the collection and start a 10th-anniversary vacation fund.&nbsp; What&#039;s the best way to go about getting a good price?&nbsp; Take it to local stores?&nbsp; Post it as a lot on ebay?&nbsp; Sell some individual pieces?&nbsp; Should I try to get any of them graded?&nbsp; I&#039;ve cataloged what I think are the pieces with significant value over face value (silver halfs and dollars, indian head pennies, barber and mercury dimes, buffalo nickels, a half dime, a flying eagle cent).</p><p><br /></p><p>3) I have maybe 40+ foreign coins.&nbsp; Most of them are from the 70&#039;s and 80&#039;s, but I do have a few British coins from the early 20th century.&nbsp; Should I keep these separate?&nbsp; For anything worth just its face value is there an easy place to get them all converted?</p><p><br /></p><p>Any suggestions on moving forward would be much appreciated <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
