<p>[QUOTE=&quot;imrich, post: 2507029, member: 22331&quot;]I&#039;ve been selling similar material and more for the last ~5 years, in minimum $25 Face Value lots.</p><p><br /></p><p>You should be able to sell any unmutilated pre-1965 90% U.S. coin with a full date/mint-mark at a NET premium, <b>dependent upon where it&#039;s sold.</b> The only coins I&#039;ve seen as &quot;junk&quot; on your list, are undated S.L. quarters. I initially feed the coins through a manual coin counter, which generally catches the mutilated coins. I then stack the coins in an appropriate tube, which will rapidly allow additional culling as the undesirable coins wont stack evenly. Don&#039;t bother with holders, as most buyers just want to see general condition and count, which can be seen by stacked placement in a plastic transparent $10 worth holder. While stacking/placing the coins in a pouch you can also remove undesirable coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>I initially tried the avenues that members of a site as this would suggest, but found that &quot;professionals&quot; have established numerous methods to confiscate your coins, often quite &quot;dis-honest&quot;. I&#039;ve determined that Craigslist is the best media for sales, when practicing safe transfer procedures. I&#039;d suggest that you never ship coins to a potential buyer, unless you&#039;ve been paid in advance, and you use a method assuring delivery. There are &quot;big-time&quot; thieves offering &quot;consignment&quot;!!</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve found that a discounted (i.e. &lt;melt) sale of &quot;Junk&quot; on Craigslist will allow a NET sale value greater than any normally recommended. The discount amount is generally determined by &quot;market&quot; conditions. Currently, generally a 10% discount will sell virtually whatever 90% &quot;junk&quot; you&#039;ve to offer.</p><p><br /></p><p>I recommend that you limit the sales amount at any given time, to dollar-cost-average. I&#039;ve often received offers to purchase &quot;everything&quot;, but limit my sales to ~$200 Face Value/buyer.</p><p><br /></p><p>The uncirculated 90% pre-1965 and generally pre-1916 will command a premium above normal &quot;no junk&quot;, dependent upon condition.</p><p><br /></p><p>JMHO[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
