<p>[QUOTE="seasnake, post: 1011467, member: 25449"]I like the 3 partners at my local coin store but am well aware that they buy low, sell high. The worst coin in the world is the one you want to sell them but all of theirs are super coins, well worthy of a premium. I picked up a double '58 mint set from them last year, way too much money. I sent in the 4 halves, 4 quarters and the 2 D dimes to NGC. They all came back higher than I had hoped, all halves 66 with 2 fbl and 1 with a star, all quarters 66 and the 2 dimes, one 66, one 67 both ft. All coins had great color which is why I bought them so I could probably get my money + 50% back at minimum. I brought them back to the shop for a gloating moment, one partner said somewhat testily "well, we made money too" ha ha. I do sell them silver melt as they seem to have the best price around and it unfortunately has become a major part of their business, a shame I guess.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
