    I love what you are doing, Daniel! Your honesty and openness is refreshing. I’ve been collecting since the 70’s and have made several friendships with dealers. I have always respected the people who were the most honest and found them to be the most successful in the long run. Keep doing what you are doing and share your knowledge. Good things come to good people! Much respect and best wishes for your continued success!

    I just turned 70 in January, started coin collecting when I was 13 which would have been 1963. I love coins so much that I still have every coin I ever acquired over the years. I have never wanted to sell a coin and have tried to get my grandsons interested in them but they just don't get the attraction. I have tried to educate my grown children about what I actually have so they will have some idea. I am beginning to think it would be better for me to sell them now than for them to do it later. But I just can't.

      It sounds like your family do not appreciate coin collecting it probably would be better for you to sell some of it so they do not get ripped off and you probably could enjoy the money or buy some more coins. I will sell mines when I retire I will still collect after I retire but not as near as much as my working years. I would still comb the banks and coin roll hunt and Still buy a little off of e Bay or coin shops but not as aggressively.

      I suspect the grandsons are not ferrous, hence the lack of (magnetic) attraction. If you want to adopt a grandson, I'm near Philadelphia and would call once a week, send greeting cards for the various annual events, and attend family functions.

    This was a great video. Too many people today don't understand the difference between direct sales to another person and selling to a business. A business has to worry about overhead, the costs of holding that inventory for however long it takes to sell, and the costs of trying to sell that piece of inventory. It can be surprising when you begin to add it all up what it costs to be a viable business. In most lines, when buying direct the typical lines are a 60-40 split. The dealer is usually good when getting the piece for 40% below anticipated retail price. On some of those small value coins though, those margins are razor thin. While I'm not a coin dealer, my own experience has been to educate the other party as best as possible on the inputs into the offer (just like you did here) and try to find that common ground where we're both happy.

    I think a lot of people that don't know much about coins look up retail prices . Then they can't seem to understand why a Coin Dealer won't pay and can't pay retail prices . They don't take into consideration that the Coin Dealer has to buy coins at a price they can resale the coin for a profit so they can stay in business .

    A good relationship with an honest dealer has been my best experience. I bought regularly from my dealer and in turn occasionally I would sell. When I did sell, I generally got red book value if top tier graded. It was during a bear market for coins then so that may have had some play in it.

To trade or sell to get what I want. When I have found a coin, I look online to get an idea of its value, and divide by 2, and start from there. And sometimes I learn something which is also pretty valuable.

I do have a couple V nickels that were passed on down from my dad I recently went through one roll of dad’s Barber Nickels and found all uncirculated. In the mix was the 1912-S BU. It fetches a lot.

    Obviously there are a lot of factors to consider when it comes time to sell your coins. The best advise I can give someone selling to a dealer(or to another collector for that matter); Whether it’s a single coin or a massive collection, know exactly what your bottom line is before you walk in. Of course what you’re asking has to be within the confines of reasonability, but don’t be afraid to tell a dealer what you’re rock-bottom price is..... and certainly don’t be afraid to walk away if the dealer is unwilling to meet your ask.

    Very informative, very helpful, much appreciated! I think I’ll save this video as I am new to coin collecting. I purchased my first ever, Kennedy half dollar rolls for $40, found a couple bicentennials and a few shiny ones, no silver nothing outstanding but I did run a cross seven 2013 D pennies I got in change that year and because they were so shiny I just dropped them in a drawer and thought wow these look like they just came off the press. I ran across them a few days ago and they are really sharp looking even under a magnifying glass so I’m excited about them. I don’t know their value but did watch a video that talked about 2013 D pennies in good shape, I was thinking about sending one in and paying the $20 to have it graded but I have seven total. Wish your shop was in my town I would come by and see what you thought. I took pictures. This coin hunting has me so intrigued, tons to learn, I’m taking notes,

    To my ever lasting shame.. I once sold a double eagle in late 2011 for just $250 when they were going for close to $2,000... See, I bought the coin in the late 90’s when gold was going for around $300 an ounce. When I bought it, I threw it in my coin box and forgot about it for years. Then in 2011, I needed some money and I just assumed that gold was probably about the same as it had been when I first got the coin. Now, I know that the dealer needs to make something so I figured $250 would be a fair price. When I walked into the shop and showed it to the dealer.. he was like.. “what do you want for it?”.. I was like.. “would you be able to do $250..?”. He jumped on that deal right away and I just got a feeling in my stomach that I just seriously messed up. After I walked out, I got on my phone and saw that my coin went for just over $1,900.. I instantly felt sick in my stomach and there was nothing I could do about it.
    It was a very valuable lesson though and I always do my research now before I sell or buy anything.

    For bullion gold etc., the dealers in my area (Wash. DC-Baltimore) pay 97%-99%. I have gotten even slightly over spot on occasion. One dealer routinely pays at least around 98.5% so before I go in I figure what I should get based on this % and the spot price and if I get less than this, I'm likely to try another day. And if I wait, I do get the 98.5% price and sometimes more.

    You can sell your coins on Ebay. Ebay will take 10% + 2.9% for paypal + .31 cents for paypal + the costs of shipping which is around $3-8 dollars, plus the cost of shipping supplied if you don't have envelopes, shipping tape, etc laying around. Then you need to drive to the post office and ship our your coins. So a dealer will pay you less because they are handing you cash right away for it. If you want to get more then you have to put in the work just like the dealer would have to do. Hope this makes sense and what a great video.

    I like the fact you mention the difference, in problem free coins, and regular coins or circulated.
    I lot of people don't realize, that it makes all the difference.
    Uncirculated Mint coins, can still have problems, if not properly stored.
    But, a problem free UNC or Mint coin, is something that rare & more desirable!
    Then you get into error & double die coins & the type of doubling! Is it is a Machine erroror or Die error?
    Determining the difference can be difficult on some coins & price of a true double die, is going to be more, than a machine error double die, in most cases!
    It's something, that does take experience! You have to find a match of the coin, you photograph, reference, and then price accordingly.
    There are thousands of Adverage circulated coins, there is only a few Mint State Gradable coins to be acquired, that will grade high value.
    If it doesn't look like it will grade above a MS 65, it's basically an adverage coin to me!
    That is how, I look at it & it's not going to be worth grading! But, it is still worth a more than the face value!
    I look at circulated penny's 3.1g copper, being worth 3 time's the face value to me!
    Once, I photograph & package, insure it's not damaged & is property conserved.
    Then it starts to have a value! May be 3 dollar's on a low side, maybe 10 thousand on a high side of Mint State.
    But, if doesn't have any documentation, and it came out of change! It's not going to have a high resale value in most case's.
    Once researched, time is money, the SAFLIP alone, cost 25 cents. I don't use cheap cardboard flips for any coin! So, I value the time, photographs, into value! Then come up with a price.
    If I can't resale a coin for at least 3 to 6 dollar's, It's not worth the effort!
    That is how, I look at it! There is a lot more to establishing a value, than just having the coin!
    Great video Daniel, as always. I post my coins on mind's social media account first, if you would like to see them. Our Republic on Mind's.

  • @ronschneider1870

    Good morning Daniel! What a lot of people don't understand is that the coin market has too many variables. Raw coins verses graded coins. BU Washington quarters verses slick standing liberty quarters or dateless quarters. Sometimes when the coins are so slick that you can't even tell what image is on the quarter then the best thing to do is buy it as the silver weight of the coin. Its seems to be a double market now. Being a Coin dealer is not easy as it was 50 years ago. Back then you could look at the Red Book and see what the grade of the coin looked like and compare it to the coin that you have! Love looking at your videos Daniel! I have learned a lot! Thank you!

    @pamelaroberts-aue7984 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Your suggestions are very reasonable... and wise! self education is the path and I do research and reason. We have to self educate and learn the terminology in order to understand the market for our own self protection. What people do not do enough of is to ask a lot of questions for themselves as well as others. But again, one has to have knowledge in order to know what questions to ask. We also have to realize that our fathers/ mothers/ grandfathers did not have the internet to homeschool themselves and may not have even had great libraries to research in. They saved their pocket change or a few coins from the bank when they went in or the coin shop. They did not even know about grading and even those standards have changed. When we help ourselves to learn and then come to a buyer / collector then we help them as well to take less time in evaluation and will exit more satisfied and less disappointed.

    The number one thing I learned ,After 30 years of metal detecting in ghost towns for coins, scavenging after bulldozed red tagged houses for coins, hunting for coins at yard sales, estate sales, buying through the neighborhood, and of course at coin shows & dealers,,,: RARE COINS ARE RARE FOR A REASON.....LOL

    It never hurts for the collector to do his homework before selling his/her coins! What he/she thinks is a treasure is not always the case. Leave room for the dealer to make some money too.

      Less than 50% is NOT common practice and especially regular customers! I buy back often. Yesterday I bought back $5,100 in coins that the person paid around $6,500 for, maybe less since it was over a three year period. I tried to pay 75%. I know silver was down so some of this he made money on or broke even.

    I'm a very rare breed I guess in that I still get excited any time I see and handle a Kennedy half dollar. I dunno if I love them enough to buy in a coin shop, but I think I've only ever had 5 in my lifetime prior to inheriting my grandfather's coin collection. I think I'd be willing to support your shop though and snag a few Kennedy's. I seem to like fat, excessive coins; not for practicality (I don't think I would ever take one to spend; so bulky!), but for their weightiness in your hand. You pull out an Ike, for example, and I feel you are making a statement. Not because they haven't been made in 40 years, but because you FEEL that American purchasing power; you just don't get that with a Carter Quarter or with paper.

    The best price you will get is one or two pieces at a time, Just like you collected the items and from someone that is collecting coins. Dealers are looking to make some money they have to pay rent and overhead of running the shop.

Unfortunately,like in every other businesses, there are people out there looking to make the largest profit possible and will take advantage of people. Stay out of pawn shops and go strictly to coin shops. Shop around and make a educated sale. Thanks for the info.

    @hyfy-tr2jy 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I struggle to understand (from a business perspective) why a coin dealer would pay north of 90% of spot for common "bullion" gold coins. Unless you can turn around and resell that coin within a week or two the profit margin just isnt there to support tying up your cash in gold (unless you are speculating gold will go up significantly). like right now if you paid 95% of spot (as i write this gold is $1582 an ounce) that means if you get full melt value out of it you gross $80 in profit on a $1500 purchase. Unless you can flip that coin almost immediately and retain the full $80 profit you are better off buying/sellling silver at 80% of value

    Daniel, you should do a video on the itinerant "coin buyers" that go from town to town, advertise in local papers, and set up in hotels. I've heard that they pay pennies on the dollars, almost fraudulently low. It would be informative, and if they really are cheaters, it would alert the public and save many a widow from being taken advantage of.

  • @JONJon-COD

    He will buy your peace dollar for 15-30$ dollars which is fair . But he will spend more money having the coin graded and takes the risk of not getting the grade he needed. Not want but needed in order to potentially make a profit. The fees involved is crazy I’m hoping in selling a legit find that can cover all the expenses just to have everything that truly is worth grading . Coin community mostly about a guy stating he found this in change or grandfather attic…funny coins in one lot on a estate sale pretty memorable. Billiards community just vicious $100 flip to 2k/5k on some cues. Guitars used to be bad . Just pointing things out while your out

  • @jamesgoss1860
    @jamesgoss1860 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I was at my LCS and I showed him an 1878-CC Morgan I had just bought. I wanted his opinion on it. He then went to price it. He pulled out the monthly greysheet catalog, and showed me a price $100 less than I bought it for. That's what he would have sold it to me for (we didn't get into what he'd pay for it). We then checked the 'free' online greysheet, and it gave a price a little higher than what I paid. We then checked recent eBay completed sales, and they were closer to what I paid. It's all over the place though. Did I overpay, which greysheet amount is more accurate?
    What's the most "definitive" way to determine a coin's current value? I guess just checking recent sales? Why are the pricing sheets (from the same company, no less) all over the place for the same coin/condition? If I try to offer a price from the official monthly greysheet, eBay sellers think I'm lowballing them, even if I add 10-20% to cover seller fees.

      The difference would be a typo unless you're comparing their CPG with their wholesale, but you should be calling them about errors if that is the case. I go by sold auctions based on the condition and appearance of the coin.

    Great videos and information Daniel. We had two coin shops in town the one we had a relationship is no longer here. The other shop the first couple of times going in put a pretty sour taste in my mouth with high prices and no negotiation. But that was many years ago and with competition. Now with no local competition it really concerns me. I gotta bite the bullet and go back in I guess. The 2500 mile trip, maybe closer to 2000 miles, is a bit of a drive for a visit to your shop. Lol keep up the great videos man, they are always full of wonderful info, guides and tips.

    Sixteen years ago my father and I had a large coin robbery. The coins were alll listed with the FBI and INTERPOL All the coins came on the market after the fence died in 2017. The buying dealers paid ten to twenty cents on the dollar. I paid the dealers what they had paid for the rare coins. The problem was not with the dealers except none had checked to see if the coins had been stolen until I had contacted them or EBay. All of the rare coins had been taken out of their holders.
