I plan on going to the Whitman Coin Expo in Baltimore this Spring and selling some of my coins, mostly slabbed and graded U.S. gold and silver numismatic coins. The values probably range from $100 up to $2,000 or so. No great rarities but several thousand dollars worth of coins altogether. I have sold some coins at the Whitman Expo before and done pretty well, but those were fairly specialized coins (colonial coppers, tokens and some foreign) so I was able to quickly narrow down the dealers who were the most interested.
For selling less specialized coins like U.S. silver and pre-33 gold, does anyone who has sold coins at big shows have any advice as to how to go about selling the coins and getting a decent price? Any recommended dealers? I guess I could just shop the coins to every dealer there, but with hundreds of dealers that doesn't seem to make sense.
Thanks
