just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 02/09/2015 11:40 am Don't think I could ever become a coin dealer. Just can't seem to want to sell a coin. Not even one. At coin shows I see many, many coin dealers and always wondered how a person could sell a coin. Report this Post to the Staff
