Large, Large Collection Of My Dad's - Mega Update With Photos!

Thanks for the pictures. Looks like great stuff. What an adventure you have ahead.

question: How long does the estimate process take?
Do you have to leave the coins for an extended length of time?

I wish that he would answer me back or PM me. The Hamilton Coin Club has their monthly meeting Monday and they'll be 30 colletors there .. and there's an auction as well that he can observe or take part in.

Large, incoherent collections of lower to medium value stuff can be very exhausting to someone who isn't a professional. There's enough value there to paralyze with fear of selling too cheap, but not enough value to really inspire interest from heavy-hitters.

Unless someone's homebound with infinite free time to do the legwork and list the online auctions, its almost always better to propose the collection for sale to a few different sources and take the best offer.

I had to deal with a collection like this once and vowed that when I go, the theme of my own collection will be QUITE different (a small safe of tightly concentrated, higher value stuff)... but collecting 'everything' can be fun.... for a while.

Coinfrog...you beat me to it.
