[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 3763548, member: 77814"]Coins are really like anything else. Ever try to sell a car? Are you selling to the end buyer; someone who wants to just flip it; someone who wants to repair it or improve it then flip it? Each of them will value the same vehicle completely differently. The same with coins. One particular coin dealer may value bullion based coins, no matter what, for simply the metal content and nothing else. So an early based silver coin, no matter what, is simply based on the silver content. It doesn't matter if it is the most pristine coin anyone has ever seen, it's only with it's silver content. Another particular dealer may recognize some rarity and offer more. Some may or may not also look at varieties, mint errors, etc. So it all depends upon how much time you want to invest in learning about coins, to determine how you want to separate the bulk. Do you want to sell it as bulk, or break it down into groups, or break it down into individual coins ? Of course some may have been bought in bulk for their silver content. If they are mostly from vending machines then you'll have a wide variety of coins from over the decades. It all depends upon how much time you invest in the entire scenario. The more time you invest then you may get more physical dollars out, but which requires much more time.[/QUOTE]
