Hey Guys, another thread reminded me of this, but it's a great tip that I received that's absolutely worth sharing. If you sell anything flat, such as coins, old photos, postcards, maps, brochures, paper money, patches, or anything flat, A scanner is your best friend. I recently scanned some patches and put them on etsy, bought them for change and they've been selling for $8 per. They come out beautifully, and they are pretty easy to crank out. Hope this helps!
One note, with patches I discovered that they came out better if I held the scanner lid all the way down to press the patches against the glass. you don't have to do this with paper stuff, but it helps with anything remotely thick.
