<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 145028, member: 4552"]My suggestion is to check out the internet for coin shows in your area. This is usually easy to do with Google or Yahoo by just typing in coin shows and your state. If your lucky enough to have coin shows in your area and your really waht to get rid of those coins the best way is to go to a coin show. Go to several dealers and pretend you just want to know what they are worth. DO NOT say you wantto sell them. Pretend you just want an appraisal. Use the prices noted by GDJMSP as a guide to see who is giving you the best prices. Then hit them with OK if it's worth that, how much will you give me for them? If you ask most dealers right off how much they'll pay you, you'll get a price at the rock bottom because they'll think your unknowing aabout coins. If no coin shows in your area, ask everyone you know if there is a reputable dealer in your area. In my area there are no such things. Almost every dealer I've met in this area was or is a used car salesman on the side. </p><p>My best suggestion is to buy a few coin books, stick with this forum, become a coin collector, learn why and how and when we all do what we do. Also, this is a great place to find out all about our countries coin and currency history and possible future.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
