[QUOTE="Michael K, post: 2829920, member: 78298"]This is a very difficult problem. There are retail prices and wholesale prices. There are rare dates, precious metals, and excellent conditioned coins. There are coins that have been harshly cleaned or otherwise damaged. Each coin is an individual story. When the entire lot is sold to a dealer I imagine you are lucky to get even 25% of the total value. And they are not being crooks. They have to resell these coins and they have expenses. You can sell them individually and that takes many years. You don't want to overpay, and pay retail. Some/many of the coins may not even be what you are interested in. It's a very long process which is why many people who have to sell, just try to get the best price they can for the entire lot. A list will only help if clear photos of both sides accompany each coin. It's probably too long for a post. Sorry.[/QUOTE]
