<p>[QUOTE="dannic113, post: 1350597, member: 35203"]Get to know your coins shop owners. A coin shop is in many cases the best option. Yeah you won't pick them up a face like from a bank. However as long as your local brick and mortar store or even online coin shop are 1) honest not just about price but on how searched rolls or bags are. Just ask I know many guys especially the older ones who make their money on bullion, coin sets, and UNC's who plain don't care. They throw silver in one bucket, bin or box and wheaties in the other. They don't check and most people even dealers are going after 55 Dbl. Die's, 09VSB-S, CC silver coins stuff like that. 2) have a deep discount bin my best pick was overstock UNC mercury dimes picked up a 44-D happened to be a D/D. Plus it's a shop I frequent so other than bullion they knock some dollars off everything I buy even graded morgans. Another possibility are estate sales. NOT GARAGE sales. Call the agent handling it to see if there are any coins, bags, or rolls and ask for a wholesale price if you are willing to either buy in bulk or spend hundreds of dollars and many will to make sure they move the stuff especially "junk".[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
