<p>[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 1664468, member: 25270"]It sounds like you have some idea what you're talking about as far as coins go, so that's a big help. If you have time to sell them on eBay I think that would be your best route. I have been doing something similar to what you are, selling coins for a family friend. The ones I'm selling are mostly 20th century silver, but I still got above melt value for all of them and even after the fees I made more than if I'd sold them for silver value to a coin shop. If they are valuable single items, sell them separately. If they are less valuable, sell them in groups. For the folders full of coins, probably sell them all together, taking pictures of what's in them and identifying them in the listing. STart the auctions at a price you're prepared to accept. In other words, don't start at 99 cents and then worry about if you'll make money. That's how I'd do it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
