Modern Crap or Classic Crap?
If you sell coins on a casual basis what has made you the most money; modern or classics? In the past couple of years I'd say that modern crap has been very very good TO ME!!

    It's been about equal, but if I sold everything the classics would be the big winner.

    About equal.
    I used to be somebody, now I'm just a coin collector.
    Recipient of the coveted "You Suck" award, April 2009 for cherrypicking a 1833 CBHD LM-5, and April 2022 for a 1835 LM-12, and again in Aug 2012 for picking off a 1952 FS-902.

    Moderns, easilly... for me, there have been more oppurtunities in cherrypicking moderns than classics...

    but then again, I also have plenty of unrealized gaines from my Half-Dimes and cherrypicking there... but I cherrypick moderns specifically for the purpose of making money...

    Modern but thats probably only because I have a hard time letting go of my classic pieces.

    I have no problem at all dumping a PR70 ASE as soon as it comes back from the PCGS.

    nope just another member trying to help out another. I wasn't posting to embarrass you. Only making a suggestion.

    Your response and lack of title edit has done that for you...

    Actually the title was edited. Also I was comparing my so called butchering of English/grammar to that commonly found here and mine is trivial by comparison. No reflection whatsoever upon your comment.

    For me it's cherried varieties and errors. My man at Coast to Coast says they can't get enough of the 2008/2007 reverse Eagles to satisfy demand! Big money!

    What are they paying for them and how much are they selling them for?

    If I recall, they are selling them for $525. I didn't ask how much they were paying since I have none. image

    Classic wheat cents. Not looking to make any money but at least break even to be able to buy more to search.
