<p>[QUOTE=&quot;clembo, post: 1010905, member: 8033&quot;]That&#039;s great news Farstaff.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have been at the local shop for about 2-1/2 years now.

We ran our butts off today and I did not sell a single coin for numismatic value. It was all bullion.</p><p><br /></p><p>Pay attention to the way your boss and co workers conduct business and especially try to do it the boss&#039; way. Don&#039;t be afraid to ask questions. I look at it this way it&#039;s not MY money I&#039;m playing with so I don&#039;t want to make a costly error.</p><p><br /></p><p>Expect to do a lot of research. One never knows what will walk in the door. I have gone from a guy with very little interest in World coins and paper money to the &quot;World paper guy&quot; because I look most of it up.</p><p><br /></p><p>Realize that you&#039;ll never know it all but you will learn on a daily basis. This is really part of what got me offered a job at the shop. Knowing a little about a variety of aspects makes you an asset.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m sure others will provide some great advice and insight. Get the job and enjoy it![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
