Would this insult?

#1 Unread post by edwin251 »

I have a decent collection of wheat pennies, nickels , dimes, Benjamin and Kennedy half's, morgan and peace dollars , a couple on one once Mexican silver coin and some foreign coins. I roughly estimate the collection to be worth 3,300.00 dollars. I decided to sell the collection, would I be out of line to sell all or none?? I would not want to cherry pick the collection. Just asking just in case down the road.

welcome to the community. if you are trying to sell your collection, just go to a coin shop near you, and I'm pretty sure they would be glad to take a look and make a offer! good luck.

They are your coins. I can't think of any ethical reason you shouldn't do as you wish. Sell one, none, some, all. Sell to one or many. Take as long as you wish. I'm sure you just want value and good homes for them.

I had a comic collection which I cherished for several decades. I then sold them. Intellectually I knew they were just things, but to me they had emotional value. To the buyer they were a means to profit. It was a challenging day for me to separate my emotions from a simple cash transaction.

Good luck.

I would make a list and send it to me in an email portsmouthcoinshop@gmail.com. I can appraise and when ready to sell I would buy the entire collection if we came to an agreeable price.
