[QUOTE="Colonialjohn, post: 2367095, member: 57741"]I remember one dealer saying to me many years ago - Buying is easy - selling is the Difficult part. Another factor is where is the coin going into or coins you have to sell. In their PRIME TIME Signature sale or mail bid/Internet only (i.e., non-floor)??? Also - will my coins go into a bulk lot. Although with Stacks/Bowers some coin are hidden all together but with Heritage each coin in the bulk lot gets a photo from my experience. (Huge). Unfortunately with myself I am LOCKED into Stacks/Bowers as a good part of my collection is contemporary circulating counterfeits. However, I may consider selling some of these through secondary auction houses if they become bulk lot'd or not pictured. Normally to get a picture a coin usually needs to be valued more than $200 although with Heritage everything seems to get a photo. Its difficult or should I say using multiple auction houses today may be in order. One thing I noticed is the old Stack's lot descriptions in the 70's-90's are gone on bottom end stuff ... a lot of it today is one liner's ... but Heritage does get a wider audience even though the lot descriptions may be one liner's and cryptic - just reciting what's on the slab.
