<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Aslpride, post: 1414625, member: 36954&quot;]I am looking for a numismatist in Los Angeles that have patient and understanding with someone like me who being a new in coin world. I have 95 Morgan/Peace coins and they are really good. I don&#039;t want to sell it to pawn shop, dealers who think all silver coins are junk and VAMs aren&#039;t popular. It&#039;s from my experience in San Bernardino/Riverside area know as Inland Empire. (East of Los Angeles) One dealer in Riverside trying to suggest that VAMs coins aren&#039;t big deal and still low marketing. They offer me $1,900 for it. I explained them that I can sell it in eBay and beat his price by far. (Current 100 Morgan/Peace has been sold in range from $2,600 as lowest to $5,400 as highest) He replied by offer at $2,120. I had enough of that. I did met a coin dealer in San Bernardino and I already explain him that I don&#039;t want to sell it to him, but want his opinion on these coins. He inspected and said that it&#039;s value between $40-$80 each to private seller. (That&#039;s $3,800 to $7,800) However, he avoid to discuss on VAMs that I did found on coins. I did met another coin dealer in Redlands and he said that he&#039;s not familiar with VAMs, but point out that I have 1883-S as rarity based on population. However it&#039;s G-4. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I have read handful of articles from this forum and VAMs are hot topic and popular among private collectors. I believe that my coins are valuable and not consider as whole junk silver coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>To the point of my question, I would like to know which numismatist in Los Angeles who have great patience with someone like me. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I did check google and there are many of them, but I want your input and suggest. </p><p><br /></p><p>Before ending my post, I did found two nice coins with rare VAMs. I found 1922 Peace with double leaves. I checked VAMworld for specs and it met with all point for VAM 6. Based on it&#039;s condition, it valued between $500 to $1,200. I also found 1897-O with die break in reverse and met all points in VAM 6a. It valued between $100 to $300 depend on condition. I did assigned handful of coins with VAMs that met all points from VAMworld. I understand that MS 60 or better with any VAM variety fetch more than $100 in eBay. Of course, they need to confirmed by either top grading company or respected numismatist.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
