Does anybody know anyone willing to buy old coins and stamps?

Question

Few coins are 100 to 200 years old. Rare type of stamps are also available.

Answer 1

Call a respected dealer. We sold our father's stamp collection after he passed away by going that route. He came to the house, looked over the collection, signed for everything and took it back to the store for a complete evaluation. He then sent us the evaluation. You can sell your collection on consignment or have the dealer buy from you directly. Consignment usually makes you more money but you have to wait for it longer. Make sure you have a detailed listing of everything (even photographs) before he takes them so you have proof. You can even get him to sign your listing (have a witness too) before he takes them anywhere.

Answer 2

I am not into stamps but most coin dealers are honest. Take the coins to a couple of dealers and see what they offer. You can also get a Coinage or Coins magazine and check their price guides. They are retails and usually high but they will give you a little knowledge so you won't be stung, dealers pay 40 to 50 % less. If a coin lists for $1 or less say in grade good and up then it is not rare but if it lists for $20 or so then you know it has value. You need to also go to the right dealer, U.S. coins go to those dealers and world coins to that type dealer. Most U.S. coin dealer know very little about world coins.
