<p>[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 138599, member: 4626"]My favorite coin store at the moment doesn't exclusively sell coins; they also sell sports cards and comics as well, but still are quite knowledgeable about the coins. Their prices seem reasonable and have a decent selection of both common and rarer stuff. However they seem to underpay when buying stuff, even allowing for a generous markup for profit, so I don't ever sell anything there. Only offered $40 for a 1875 S 20 cent piece graded EF40 by ANACS... claimed they didn't agree with the grade... but even going 10 points below that grade and allowing for markup they should have offered more. They do pay just under spot for common gold and silver though, and that's all I'd ever sell them. Have no problem buying from them though. Found a lot of interesting coins including some slightly damaged ones that make good fillers for type sets. Got a great selection of Franklins especially, including a beautiful 1951 Franklin that practically borders on prooflike. My favorite aspect on the store is that everything is displayed in plain sight. I've seen some stores that don't even dispay the coins until you ask to look at them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
