Amysattic519 Valued Member United States 65 Posts	Posted 04/30/2014 2:27 pm So much to learn! I say this all of the time and am going to repeat it now......how do you guys do this? Still clueless after a year and a half but my focus has mainly been in errors. Have sold 15 or so on ebay but none went for more than $20 each. However, turning one cent into $20 was pretty cool but am still on the hunt for the BIG ONE as I'm sure all error coin collectors are. Some probably luckily stumble across one in their first year and others maybe ten....if ever. Thanks again for all of the suggestions and advice. Report this Post to the Staff

That is why we caution going slowly, sorting and, as important, telling your family WHY you are taking this approach. To be blunt, they do not need you to just dump all of the coins at the nearest dealer/pawn shop. But you know that you can do better for them. And it is to that that desire that we we want to be of assistance. Take a very deep breath and do not loose your nerve. You will succeed in the end. Report this Post to the Staff

Amysattic519 Valued Member United States 65 Posts	Posted 05/01/2014 2:30 pm Sure. My ebay username is amysattic583. I don't have any coins for sale at the moment and everything I currently have listed is all junk! Working on a few listings today......thanks again for all of your advice!!

matthewvincent Pillar of the Community United States 3486 Posts	Posted 05/01/2014 2:43 pm Amy, It is best to learn buy selling inexpensive coins at first. Later, you will have the knowledge to sell more expensive items. All of this takes time to learn. I hope the family appreciates your efforts. Even if you do not make a profit, the knowledge acquired will pay dividends down the road. Oh, and yes, that Chinese Coin caught my eye as well. I second a separate thread just for it.

Amysattic519 Valued Member United States 65 Posts	Posted 05/02/2014 01:04 am Well said and I absolutely agree about starting out slow/small. Knowledge is power and patience is key. I definitely have a whole lot to learn and am persistent enough to do so. Great advice!! Report this Post to the Staff
