<p>[QUOTE=&quot;softmentor, post: 2174037, member: 10469&quot;]generally I accumulate for a while and wait for a gold rush to sell and a fire sale to buy. </p><p>example, sold a lot of low quality silver from my albums when silver was $42+ and picked up some much higher grade for melt prices. The higher grade coins were really fire sale priced, since they would have been premium in a low price silver market but were then going for melt price. Sold all my 40% and war nicks and a lot of duplicates in the $44-$48 boom. </p><p>Been picking some nice finds lately, a couple of nice Indian Head cents at the show in Long Beach, some mint&nbsp; &amp; proof sets with $ I had from coin roll hunting. Its not really a fire sale right now but there are some good values if you are patient and pick your buys. I&#039;m a pretty small change collector so, I play patient and slow. but then I get to savor the few transaction I do make all the more. </p><p>A lot of my &quot;duplicates&quot; are coin roll hunting finds, and these I sell or trade almost all of. Again I accumulate a little until I see a deal. Really most of my collection came from circulation coin that was traded up or sold. Annual mint sets from the mint are the only thing I really come out of pocket for.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
