<p>[QUOTE=&quot;smullen, post: 207019, member: 5165&quot;]A good friend of mine who&#039;s mom is getting on in her years has recently retired and is moving into a retirment village thing...&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>She has known me for 15+ years and knows I collect coins...&nbsp; The other night she was talking to her son/my friend and told him to get ahold of me and see if I was interested in it or she was going to take it to a local junk/antique shop....&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>From what I know, I&#039;m interested....</p><p><br /></p><p>It seems she has been buying Proof Sets, Mint Sets, and other special edition sets,and prolly a lot of Franklin mint crap too for the last 30 or so years or so.... </p><p><br /></p><p>She does not have every set in order as she is missing one here, three there, one here, etc.. etc...</p><p><br /></p><p>But its a lot... I did see several in each decade 70, 80s, early 90s... More than I have and have seen from someone I know... </p><p><br /></p><p>Its all Moderns, nothing Slabbed, no 2x2s or Albums...&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The oldest thing would be a jar full of Circulated Pre-64 coins... </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not sure why she has accumulated this mini-hoard as she knows nothing about coins and doesn&#039;t really care about them or their history...&nbsp; :desk: </p><p><br /></p><p>When talking to her about it, the best I could get out of her is that they might be worth something one day...</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve seen a bunch of it, but not all of it... </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m supposed to go look at it sometime soon, in the next few weeks...</p><p><br /></p><p>What I&#039;m wondering is how should I go about making her an offer??? I mean what price list should I use to go off of for this??? </p><p><br /></p><p>These are good friends, so I want to be fair and offer her more than a Coin store or someone else would...&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t want to rip her off by any means, but I&#039;d like to get a good deal myself....</p><p><br /></p><p>If I was going to pay retail, I could just get them from any coin store... Does that make sense???[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
