<p>[QUOTE="National dealer, post: 12732, member: 487"]Let me offer yet another option. Before making any decision, make a detailed list of what coins you have. Date, mintmark, condition, varieties. After you have done that, have a dealer estimate the value. (DO NOT SELL). After that, post the coins and conditions here on CoinTalk, and all of us here will be better equipped to offer you the best avenue to consider. </p><p>The advice previously given is very good. Let me add one thought about Ebay. It seems from what little I know about the site, that the vast majority of time, bidders wait for the last possible minute to bid on the coin, in hopes of getting the "deal". With first time sellers, the odds of getting true value for your coins are pretty slim. </p><p>Now onto dealers. While it is true that dealers often pay less (as we do have to make a profit), often larger dealers will buy it all. That should be considered. Some dates and mintmarks are just too common to bring strong retail in any arena. Larger dealers have the ability to move this material. Just a thought. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
