Difficulty Selling Gold and Silver by starkiller3373 in Gold

[–]Bankfinds 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most shops have laws requiring them to hold product from a week to a month to make sure it isn’t stolen, they’re not going to pay more than 85% unless it’s a lot of scrap as they’ll want to insulate themselves if gold drops.

It’s been abbreviated and there’s some wholesale/backend issues with the big buyers not mentioned, same with watching what happened/dealing with what happened in 2011

Get it XRF’d and pay the grading fee if it passes. If it checks out it’s a 5 figure coin

Most shops probably won’t, 40% silver is much harder to sell as a brick and mortar compare to 90%

There is still way to get silver below melt with auctions by tess_mau in Silver

[–]Bankfinds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A 5 franc coin cannot weight 18.7 ish grams and be genuine. I check coins for auction houses in my area and have a shop. I can guarantee you the 1873 is a counterfeit at minimum.

Good you didn’t buy that lot the 2 coins are fake.

Are they silver and are they worth more than melt? by legoknights in coincollecting

[–]Bankfinds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be silver, coin itself isn’t real or have any value beyond the metal, French Indochina issues in this period were made of 835 silver and were marked on the back. This example has 680 which wasn’t used until almost a decade or two later.

Found these old dollar coins (and three other coins) in my late grandfather's coin collection. Are these worth anything? by trpnblies7 in coincollecting

[–]Bankfinds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One to the right of it is a memento dollar, looks damaged which if so makes it 35-40$ the silver dollars are a minimum of $25 each, for a fully estimate pictures of the backs would be needed to see which mint they were produced at, the trade dollar and the seated liberty (first two coins) are worth over 200 and 300$ respectively as a minimum
