Any Coin Collectors on CP?
Ok...here's the deal....

We have an old coin collection that we inherited. We aren't really that into coins or stamps or whatever so we thought we would find out what the coins are worth.

I know there are a few shops here in KC that will do an appraisal for us, but before i selected one, i thought i would check with the CP braintrust and see if anyone has a shop/dealer/buyer that they might recommend?

It is worth noting that i haven't really looked through exactly what there is in detail, but there is a ton of coinage...some of which looks pretty old.

Any words of wisdom would be appreciated.

So you use to tell people that their pennies are worth 1 cent and their nickels are worth 5 cent. Did you get paid for that ?

Unfortunately, I'm in Maryland, so that's not really going to help you.

I've been building a type set (one of every coin and every variation). Unfortunately, I'm down to the coins that are going to really cost me to get in a good collectable condition.

I'm also collecting the odd coins (2 cent pieces, 3 cent pieces (silver and nickle), the twenty cent piece) as well as Morgan dollars.

I realize I'm probably preaching to the choir, but take the time to find someone who knows what they're talking about before approaching anyone about selling. They don't have to be an expert, but if you go in with an "idea" of what the coins' conditions and relative value are, then you've got a better chance of getting close to what you want (or realize if someone's seriously trying to rip you off).

If you get a list together of the coins, dates, and mint marks, I could look stuff up for you and give you the "range" you might get. Obviously, I can't grade them from here. *sigh*

Can you tell me what my 3 year old rubber boots that are "ONLY WORN FOR COLLECTING" could be worth.

They're white by the way and thanks in advance.

Edit: And they are steel toed.

Is that about normal? The shop gets 25% for their fee?
Ebay will pay more than spot. Trust me!!

But for average coins only worth weight values-he can get his money in cash for a slight premium instead of hoping they will sell on Ebay, paying a premium and waiting for the sale to close to finally get paid. Plus Cash won't have a record of the sale and won't be reported to the IRS like Ebay.

Any proof sets and novelty stuff-That is what you put on Ebay- you have a much better chance at finding a buyer as most coin shops won't buy the stuff.

Best of luck with your collection!! Hopefully you have a couple of 1909 VDB Lincoln pennies in there. Maybe 2 or 3 - 1799/98 Draped Bust Cents MS80 or better condition.

An MS80 must really be something.

I collect drummer boy quarters.

I also have an empty coors light party ball that I collect my pocket change once a week. That baby is almost full. Interested to see how much is in it.
