<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Coinman_Ben, post: 1034991, member: 9923&quot;]I&#039;ve actually sold a roll of low grade Mercury dimes on ebay for $109.06 and after ebay and paypal fees and my shipping costs, I was left with at least $100 for the roll, which would come out to be $27.65 per ounce.&nbsp; when I sold that roll of Mercury Dimes, I think the spot price of silver had just broken out above the $25 per ounce mark and was probably knocking on the door of $26 per ounce, so that&#039;s at least a $2 per ounce premium I had gotten on ebay for my roll of Mercury dimes.&nbsp; However, I did achieve that premium by taking the time to list the exact dates that were in that roll, so if you&#039;re going to sell them on ebay, I&#039;d suggest laying your coins on a flat surface, side by side, and don&#039;t stack them when taking your picture.&nbsp; Stacking coins for a picture makes it look like there&#039;s fewer coins than there really is and that will hurt your bottom line.&nbsp; I would also recommend placing in the listing, the exact list of coins that will be in each lot.&nbsp; If you have multiple copies of a certain date that are in the roll, list that date once than put the number of copies of that date that are in the roll in parentheses.&nbsp; An example is if you have five 1954S Franklin halves and your selling a 20 coin roll of Franklin halves, you&#039;re listing would be entitled &quot;one roll of Franklin halves&quot; or something to that effect, than in the item description, you would say something like &quot;up for bid is one roll of Franklin halves...&quot;&nbsp; &quot;...The coins in this roll are listed below:&quot;.&nbsp; Than in the listing where you list the 1954 S Franklin Halves, you would put &quot;1954-S (5)&quot;.&nbsp; For best results, the date should be in bold and the number of coins should not be bold.&nbsp; This helps the people who read the item description to know that the number in parentheses is the number of coins in the roll that have that exact date and mint mark.&nbsp; Including this information will maximize the profits you will realize from the sale of your coins on ebay.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
