<p>[QUOTE="Coinman_Ben, post: 595380, member: 9923"]Although I've sold many coins in my past, I can't think of a time when I sold I coin I wish I hadn't, maybe the time I sold a few beat up barber quarters, which I exchanged for better coins, but that quick exchange for more coins quickly put aside any sellers' remorse I might have otherwise had. I almost sold my 1921 peace dollar at one point because I was looking in price guides just wondering what it was worth and got greedy (i.e. wanting to make a quick buck since I had the coin awhile at that point and when I originally got it, it was a gift), but when I went to sell it and the price the coin dealer was offering wasn't as high as I thought it would be, I decided to sit on the decision awhile and ended up deciding not to sell it and I'm sure am glad I made that decision because I would ended up selling for $90 what is now worth $175. </p><p><br /></p><p>As a result of that experience, I will never consider selling my most valuable coins again even if I get into a financial crunch, ever since that time I went to sell that peace dollar and decided not to, when I have gotten into a financial crunch, I've been looking at selling my cheaper coins before I ever consider my more valuable coins because in my experience, my cheapest coins have given me more money from their sales than my more expensive coins could ever hope to give me because I have so many of them. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
