<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DFreiheit, post: 1664755, member: 45871&quot;]Thanks to everyone who took the time to weigh in (in troy ounces, no doubt...).&nbsp; It&#039;s all going into the hopper.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>On my end, I talked with Stack&#039;s &amp; Bowers and Teletrade.&nbsp; Turns out they&#039;re both owned by the same company, one takes the high end, one takes the lower end.&nbsp; S&amp;B has a minimum of $500 per coin, so that leaves most of my coins out--and they usually charge a sellers fee too.&nbsp; Teletrade has no sellers fee, but all the coins have to be slabbed; it&#039;s only $9 per coin, but that&#039;s still a lot when the coin is only worth $50 or $70.&nbsp; Not only that, but I personally don&#039;t like the idea of slabbing.&nbsp; I know that&#039;s a big debate in these circles but personally I understand why some people don&#039;t like to see the coins encased in their little mausoleums.&nbsp; But, if that ultimately is the most cost-effective way to go, I will go there.</p><p><br /></p><p>If people know of reputable auction houses that don&#039;t require professional grading and don&#039;t charge a seller&#039;s or buyback fee, please let me know.&nbsp; I may want to split up the collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>The one impression I&#039;m getting from the comments is:&nbsp; The more time I put into it, the more value I&#039;ll get in the sales.&nbsp; It&#039;s been a long day and I&#039;m pretty pooped, so I&#039;m going to sleep on it and go through everyone&#039;s comments again tomorrow.&nbsp; Stop all engines, repel boarders!...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
