    Go to the BST (Buy, Sell, and Trade) Forum. Post some quality pics of what you are selling. Price what you are selling. Interested parties will contact you by PM. Since you are new here, be prepared to ship what you are selling prior to getting paid for it. We've had some scammers come here who sold coins and then disappeared after getting paid for them without ever shipping them.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    @Camy.... Welcome aboard. Follow the advice above... You may have to wait a couple of days to post pictures (forum protocol)... But the BST (Buy, Sell, Trade) forum is a good venue. Cheers, RickO

    Is it OK to ask for a best offer or to ask for any offer instead of listing a price?
    I know we all want to see a selling price however l, and I'm sure others, have coins to sell and have no idea how much to ask.

    You can ask for a best offer but many collectors will skip your listing because they don't want to waste their time playing games with sellers. You own the coin and you should say what you want for it.
