Selling old coins

Any tips about this?

I have over 1000 coins (all non uk) spread across 48 different currencies. Listing them all on ebay would take forever and it's hit or miss with coins on there.

Any ideas?:cool:

    Bricks and mortar antiques/collectables auction house. Ask auctioneer how best to lot the coins.
    If you are querying your Council Tax band would you please state whether you are in England, Scotland or Wales
  • Coin sales direct are offering a zero :j:j 0% commission:T on selling coin collections, think their new facility looks like launch 2013, guess it will charge a small listing cost? site is, coinsalesdirect.com (looks UK based):money:
  • Buy lots of old french coins on ebay.com (sometimes sellers have in lot, and they don't know the realy prices of it).

    Go to ebay.fr (France) and sell the coin in details...
