<p>[QUOTE="mark_h, post: 310544, member: 3726"]Nice list of suggestions - the only one I am not sure about is #4. Selling coins back to the dealer - yes I have a few of those gems from my local dealer, but those are the ones I do not want to get rid of. So I am not sure what I would learn by selling them back - well except maybe to lose a little money, they do need to make a profit. At this point I have only been doing this for 5/6 years - the 20 or so years before that I was just buying mint products. I think I am still not ready to sell coins - even though I do have a couple of duplicate PCGS graded silver eagles. Need to think about this more. I know at one point I was going to sell them a 4 coin smithsonian, they encouraged me to continue to hold it since they expected it to continue to increase. If I recall correctly at they time the set was selling for 1700 on ebay and they offered 1500. At this point I am still not sure I want to get rid of anything.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
