<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hotpocket, post: 1861845, member: 44182&quot;]A few years ago, my wife&#039;s grandfather passed away at age 87.&nbsp; He had shown me his coin collection a few times - mostly US silver coins, but a pretty nice lot.&nbsp; After his passing, my wife&#039;s grandmother chose to sell the collection - and when she told me what she sold it forI couldn&#039;t believe it. MUCH lower than what I would have expected.&nbsp; But she didnt know anything about the collection, it was HIS hobby, not hers.&nbsp; So she had a local coin shop review the collection and make her an offer.&nbsp; Seemed fair to her so she took it.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I feel bad for her, as I think she was cheated - guy probably saw an old woman with a coin collection that she didnt know the value of.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Would hate for that to happen to my wife or kids.&nbsp; For this reason, I agree with those of you who would elect to sell the collection and pass along the cash vs. put the burden on loved ones to try to sell the collection for a fair price.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just my 2 cents.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
