<p>[QUOTE=&quot;stevent, post: 196664, member: 7916&quot;]About 10 years ago, a co-worker&#039;s father passed away and left a coin collection behind.&nbsp; My friend didn&#039;t want the coins and knew that I had a passing interest in old coins, so we struck a deal:&nbsp; I&#039;d pay him 110% of the face value of all U.S. pennies; I&#039;d pay him the book value of the lowest grade I could determine for the silver coins (not being an expert at grading coins) and I paid him the then-current market price per ounce for all other sliver coins (mostly commemorative Morgan Mint, etc.)</p><p><br /></p><p>We were both happy with the deal.</p><p><br /></p><p>Well, ten years later I&#039;m thinking to sell of some of the coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>What would be the best approach?&nbsp; Should I take photos and put them up for auction on eBay?&nbsp; Take them to a local coin dealer and pay for individual appraisals (at least two thousand coins, including pennies)?&nbsp; Sell some in lots?&nbsp; Just hold on to them (we don&#039;t need the money)?</p><p><br /></p><p>Suggestions, anyone?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
