<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1928867, member: 19463"]No one wants to hear that a 25 cent coin with an hour of research, placed in a flip/2x2/envelope with full ID is still a 25 cent coin and will sell for 25 cents minus handling. Handling to some dealers might be over 25 cents. I'd separate out anything worth over $10 and sell the rest as a single lot (probably to a dealer in world coins who has a pickout pot). A favorite dealer of mine has a pot of such coins at shows and allows kids to take one coin from it just for stopping by and showing interest. I looked in the pot and saw a one euro piece. That was not an accident but a way of rewarding YN's who paid attention. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have the same problem but all the coins are ancients and several hundred of them are worth less than $10. The easy answer is to die and make it your grandsons' problem. They will not be offended by the cash value even if $100. You will be.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
