[QUOTE="National dealer, post: 6905, member: 487"]Here is a little trick that the staff and I use. We carry our loupes around our neck using an ANA lanyard. Many a cashier will see the ANA logo and ask if we collect coins. The others ask what the ANA is. We use this to inform them that we are dealers and that we are always looking for coins and currency. Make up a few business cards that tell others you are looking for coins. They don't have to be fancy. Spread the word everywhere you go. Visit these same places every week. Give them a wheat cent as a token of your appreciation. Use a 2x2 to put your name and phone number on. On the top of the 2x2 write that you are looking for coins. Make a standard offer of 3 times face for any old coin. It is very hard to go wrong with this formula. Good luck![/QUOTE]
