<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JBlade00, post: 1416170, member: 37468&quot;]Hey all,</p><p><br /></p><p>My dad passed away about 6 months ago and left me with a pretty large coin collection. Most of it (about 35 lbs) is junk silver (That I&#039;m having fun going through w/ a loupe to try and find errors <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ) and there are some that are pretty nice. I cataloged most of it which took about a month of heavy hours and learned quite a bit along the way.</p><p><br /></p><p>Recently, I&#039;ve thought it to be a good idea to get some coins from ebay that I might be able to grade / collect / sell, etc... In the last week, I&#039;ve won 3 auctions;</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/220994116374?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/220994116374?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/220994116374?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649</a> - Received the coins yesterday and they are pretty nice. I will most likely be sending 5 of them in for a regrade (the non-common-ish ones). Went to a local dealer and they said &quot;If it were me, I would send them in for a regrade&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/170822752121?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/170822752121?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/170822752121?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649</a> - Even if all of the silver coins are ag-g, I got about 3 times the value of what I paid. Pretty excited to see these.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/150789286480?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/150789286480?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/150789286480?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649</a> - Excited and worried about this one. The seller seems fairly sure about their estimates but they are what they are.... estimates. If that 1891-CC VAM-3 truly IS a MS66, I don&#039;t really understand why they wouldn&#039;t send it in for a $15k+ payday. I would be ecstatic if it came back an MS65 and would be kind of disappointed if it came back any lower than that. It looks pretty flawless in the pictures, save for some weird mark above the eagle to the left.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have been taking WAY too much time looking at coins... My wife isn&#039;t too pleased about it <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. So I figured I&#039;d try and get some feedback as to how I am doing. Trying to figure out the best way to take pictures of these coins but I don&#039;t have the best equipment and it&#039;s really hard to discern details from high grade (ms64 vs ms65) coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>Open floor of discussion and I won&#039;t take offense if you think my coin choices are dumb! :thumb:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
