<p>[QUOTE="coleguy, post: 1064470, member: 9167"]This may sound a bit vague but it's just the way it is, no matter where or to whom you take your coins to when or if it's time to sell. You can't sell if nobody is buying, and when selling they sell for what someone will buy them for. Guides and greysheets are fine and dandy if establishing basic ground, but even dealers have to know trends...what people are buying and what they'll pay for it, which no printed paper can predict with any accuracy. One day a coin might be worth $300 but tomorrow it might only be worth $150. The question on how much is my collection worth is like asking how many stars are in the universe....it's debatable at best, but impossible to answer in reality.</p><p>Guy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
