<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1758779, member: 19463"]The problem with a small foreign collection (375 is tiny) of what could be 10 cents to $10 a coin is that there are few buyers interested in the lot. Dealers will remove the few good ones and the rest will go in the grab bins. Collectors get fun out of building a collection and might not want 375 coins of which they already have 200 as opposed to pulling selected coins out of a bin. I agree with scottishmoney's statement. I need to realize that few of you would be willing to pay me what I have in my collection even if the total of the items 'catalog' at several times that amount. You would prefer to buy coins you like rather than take the bunch I bought for some reason. Finding a dealer who wants 375 (or 3075) foreigns (or ancients) is hard enough unless a good number of them are very special.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
