All the bullion related stuff would be sold to a local dealer in Independence, MO who I trust. The rest would probably go to Heritage Galleries in one of their Signature Auctions. Any piece they (HA) weren't willing to list in a Signature Sale, --instead insisting it must be sold in an Heritage internet only auction--, would be sent somewhere else to be sold, probably eBay. Hardest piece to part with would probably be the 1938 Albania 50 Franga NGC MS66 originally purchased from Bob Steinberg. Far and away the nicest known example of the coin in the entire universe.
OH MAN, please don't make me think of selling all my coins... I would cry like a big baby for days or weeks, maybe months or years... And that ain't no lie...
i have sold my primary collection for in excess of £1million, this money has gone to good use by creating a healthy and wealthy old age for myself and my wife....................
Seems many collectors go the all or nothing route, they either sell off the whole thing and they are done with it or they hold out. My biggest fear about selling would be the Zimbabwe effect of inflation on my fiat dollars once the collection were disposed of, no matter how valuable it was when it was sold. But from a pure emotional vantage, it is probably far easier to sell the whole thing at once than passing a death sentence on half the collection and a reprieve on the other half.
