<p>[QUOTE=&quot;IBetASilverDollar, post: 2781055, member: 85251&quot;]It is very difficult to profitably flip coins for experienced collectors and takes a huge stroke of luck for beginners.&nbsp; I&#039;m a little under a year in and have lost money on almost every coin I&#039;ve bought and sold so far aside from a few that I&#039;ve accidentally flipped for profit.&nbsp; Remember selling coins costs you 10-20% or more depending on the venue.&nbsp; So you would have had to bought the coins at least that much less than their market value and that is not a likely thing to happen at a coin shop.&nbsp; Also it&#039;s a good lesson to really buy coins you love because you probably will lose on them when unloading them.&nbsp; Don&#039;t just buy a coin because it&#039;s for sale, you should be passing wayyyyy more than you are buying on coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for toning, as Lehigh mentioned it&#039;s best to stick to already slabbed coins until you have more experience.&nbsp; It will save you lots of headaches without a doubt.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, artificial or not, I kinda like that Peace dollar for $20.&nbsp; I think far too often people act like artificial toners will literally burn your hand if you touch them.&nbsp; If you weren&#039;t deceived into thinking it was natural, for 20 bucks you got an interesting coin IMO&nbsp; The problem comes in when AT coins are being represented as NT and sold for massive premiums.&nbsp; When you are talking around spot and you like the look who cares[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
