I sell a few every now and then but not much luck for me trying to sell here on CCF.

I've never sold a coin from my collection but I probably will after my wife and I are both retired. I have so many duplicate, triplicate and even quadruples of IHCs that I don't really need them all. I might as well make some money from them. It's just so hard to let them go, lol.

I also have many duplicates. I would like to think that when I pass them down my daughter will be able to keep all my main sets and then still make a lot of money selling the duplicates.

Generally I just rent coins.


Kind of what we all really do you know. And that is sort of true of everything we think we own.
Never have sold a coin in well over 60 years now.
Maybe tomorrow.

I'll sell extras to fill holes in other collections. It's tough to sell though, they're like my own kids. I said 6 months ago that I was selling some gold and silver...still haven't gotten up the courage to give them up.

Usually if I buy it I am planning on keeping it, but every now and then I will buy with the intent to resale. I have sold a few coins that I have bought for my collection but that is usually because I have upgraded that particular coin or it is a coin that doesn't mean as much to me as another coin does and I will sell it to help fund a new purchase but most of my activity is buying with very little selling

I buy some coins with the specific intent to sell them at a profit, but rarely actually get around to selling them. I find some really outstanding prices every now and then on coins I don't normally collect. They usually find a way to stay in my collection.
