<p>[QUOTE="Steamandlight, post: 2464484, member: 56876"]That's a good point, and of course i'm separating out everything with better dates, varieties, errors, BU/MS, or otherwise interesting coins lol. Basically anything that has nothing special about it other than the silver, is what I'm considering right now. But there is a lot... Definitely over $700FV, maybe as much as $1000FV, that I am sorting out as 'investment silver'. If I sell a portion of that, that will give me some money to work with - get back into CRH maybe, which is where most of it came from over the years. I've not really done much the past couple years, but I used to search at lest $20k-$30k per month, $1000 to $2000 at a time. Haven't had that much free, liquid cash in years though... been living month-to-month trying to start a business. Which is why I was considering selling in the first place. I've never sold any of it before.</p><p><br /></p><p>The other option, of course, is to let go of a few numismatic pieces, and use THAT money instead... while silver may go up and down, a $600 silver coin that is a key date probably won't move with the market much, right? If silver hits $100 an ounce, what are the chances that coin goes up proportionally?</p><p><br /></p><p>I don't know. The only thing I am sure of, is that I need to take my time and think rationally, not make an impulsive decision. What do I want to do, and if I want to invest, what kind of investor do I want to be?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
