Selling collection

#1 Unread post by tiger381 »

I have a fairly large coin collection that I am ready to sell. I live in Mississippi. How do I find a coin dealer in the area?

Hello!

Personally speaking, I would recommend using the link below to assist you in finding a local, reputable dealer.
https://roundtabletrading.com/

I would take the time to use one resource to do some upfront value understanding. Your best option is to purchase a book called the Red Book (available for purchase online). You may be pleasantly surprised at the value, or very disappointed. I am always amazed at folks that have something worth $3 think it’s worth a fortune. It goes the other way too!

Your other option is to sell the coins one at a time using websites such as eBay. You certainly would make more money that way, but you have to commit to doing your research in determining each coins value, and then factoring in shipping costs. Might make a great part time business venture!

Good luck!

I agree with the Round Table dealers. I am one of them. However, always choose dealers that you can worth with and feel comfortable with.
