Mail them to me......I'll shoulder the burden of disposing of them for you.



No, not to him, MEEEEEEEEEEEEE
For me I've never sold a coin, nor trading one to anyone for anything. Some time ago I did give a lot of them to a YN though.
My method is simple. I get a coin and if better than a coin in one of my Albums, it goes into that Album and the one in the Album goes into a 2x2 and then into one of those Whitman two row Red Cardboard boxes. Eventually there is enough of those duplicates to start another Album. Which is what I do.
Presently have well over 100 Albums, mostly Whitman and a few Dansco.
For example I now have 12 Albums of Mercury dimes. In most Albums it is now really a problem since if I acquire a coin that belongs in Album #1, I must move the coin from #1 to #2, then #2 to #3, Then #3 to #4 and on and on and on. Naturally #1 is the best and they go downward in grades after that. In most instances even a one coin purchase can create several hours of work. but just can't part with a coin.
