Question
Hi Dan-I have some old silver dimes to sell.None of them is anywhere near mint. Since the price of silver is up,where could I sell these?

I have an 1988 1 oz gold Panda.I've looked at all the details of this one,it looks real except for a slight copper color and 1 copper spot.I read that Pandas have a trace amount of copper and it can tint the surface,and that there was quality problems and flaws in some of the early coins.
Is the information correct?
thanks

Answer

Expertise

My strong familiarity with all U.S. Mint coins, extensive reference library, and close relationships with many other dealers allows me to identify just about any coin made in the USA. I receive regular updates to all the current price guides -- both wholesale & retail -- to provide accurate values. So, with a good description or pictures, I should be able to identify and value any U.S. coin you have.

Experience

I've been a coin dealer since the 1980's and a coin collector since the 1960's. I specialize in U.S. Silver Coins and have an active online website -- The Working Man's Rare Coins -- http://www.workingmancoins.com -- offering information and inventory in U.S. coins.
