<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Market Harmony, post: 720219, member: 20154&quot;]Many of the suggestions are very good. I happen to agree most with the suggestion to have the collection of coins sold by a live auctioneer. Please shop around. Many auctioneers in my area take 10 to 15% of the final value as their cut. But a good auctioneer can get collector&#039;s value or close to it (+ and -). I would suggest that you send your coins to a reputable auctioneer that consistently has coin-only auctions.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I go to coin auctions nearly every week in various areas around my home. There are auctioneers that focus on coins, antiques, and collectibles. Some only focus on coins. The turnout has been anywhere from 30 to 70 attendees that have a diverse interest, so it ends up that there is a bidder for every lot.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I went to an auction today and the auctioneer stated that he is looking for lots to sell in the coming month. I would be happy to send the information to you about the auctioneers in my area that regularly hold coin auctions. I&#039;m sure that they would take out of state collections and sell them locally. In fact, I know they do. Since you&#039;ve already put them in holders, it will make it much easier for the auctioneer to sell your collection. The only added work you would have to do is ship it to them and wait for the proceeds.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Send me a private message if you want any references to auctioneers that I know of, or you can check out this link for local auctioneers near you: <a href="http://www.auctionzip.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.auctionzip.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.auctionzip.com/</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i>edit: I wanted to add that this is the route for minimal effort with a good return.&nbsp; Other methods of selling may increase the total return, but may require more effort.</i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Good luck[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
