<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 4173232, member: 19463"]You do not give enough information for anyone to be able to help. The fastest way is to find a dealer willing to buy what you have for cash but few would consider this unless the coins were easy sellers (no junk, no low priced commons, not too many of the same thing). Fewer would have $100,000+ to buy a large collection. This will get the least money but it would be fastest. We do not know you or your coins so we could not suggest someone that would be a good fit. Many more dealers will take consignments but that will delay considerably when you get your money. You might get more money but it could be at least a year before you get it if, in fact the collection is 'large'. Most dealers I know worth anything really don't care if they are attributed. Other than that, I can agree with Theodosius but would want to add that the only important thing is how long it will take whoever owns the group to move them along at the price you are willing to accept. No one wants to tie up a large sum on slow moving coins. Also define "ancient" as you are using it. I know people who use that term for anything older than they are. If you are in a big rush and the coins are decent, a buyer can be found. If you are deluded about their quality and expect over a good return from what you paid, any sale will take longer. Ask the question again with full details.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
