<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mark_h, post: 26216489, member: 3726&quot;]My experience with my local shop.&nbsp; I once sold buckets of silver coins at the local shop.&nbsp; Basically they told me set aside any key dates or mint marks.&nbsp; Other wise it would be just spot price.&nbsp; Now all of the stuff I had was from fire. Coins had to be identifiable - as franklin or peace dollar.&nbsp; You bring in a 1000 half dollars they will not search them just run thru a machine and make you an offer.&nbsp; Now if you brought in like 10 they might look thru them.&nbsp; My case we literally had 4 to 6 five gallon buckets of coins - all low grade common dates.&nbsp; We had very few morgans - maybe 20 to 30 and all were common date low grades.&nbsp; We did look first.&nbsp; So basically everything got spot price.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now for my IHC dansco album and my liberty nickel albums.&nbsp; They reviewed all the coins both albums - did not break out prices.&nbsp; So something like a key date 1877 they will look at no mater what.&nbsp; Same with 85 and 86 liberty nickel.&nbsp; But with low grades common dates they just make an offer - seems to me it was not much on IHC and Liberty nickels.&nbsp; In my case I had albums and most coins were xf to au.</p><p><br /></p><p>Basically if you bring in a hoard they will not search it - so if you want real attention to something set it to the side.&nbsp; When I took in a bag of Lincoln cents - they basically just ran it thru a machine, counted the coins and offered 3 cents coin. I even asked what they did with them - they told me they just fill a bag with like 3000 cents and sell it on dealer network.&nbsp; &nbsp; That is my local shop and just my experiences not sure how yours will be.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
