<p>[QUOTE="tjenkins_1983, post: 351341, member: 8167"]I have my second big coin grading/appraising gig this weekend. My old boss asked me if I would come look at his dad's collection and let him know what he should list them for on eBay. He said he would make it worth my while and I believe him to make good on that. I asked him how big a collection we were talking about. He said everything he has that's NOT in his bank box weighs about 40 pounds and fills a couple of shoebox-sized boxes. I'm pretty psyched. He mentioned he had at least 3 1934-S Peace dollars and an almost complete Morgan set. Not to mention all kinds of wheaties, Indians, and mixed silver. </p><p>My first gig was doing the same thing for a teacher that worked with my wife a few years back. I like doing it just as a way to hone my grading skills. However, it's nice to walk away with something. </p><p>I'm planning on getting some business cards made up so I can start passing them around and maybe have something to do this summer. I'll do free grading and appraisals and offer to buy anything they have. Anyone have any advice?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
