What's the Best Way to Market a Roll Set of Lincolns?

The rare dates are easy. But what do you do with a roll of average circ. 1913s?

    I would suggest putting them in albums ans put them on Ebay. But first try the BSTimage

    Pick up a copy of Coin World magazine. There are buyers in there for all those rolls.

    Hell no don't sell them to the roll buyers in coin world. Give us a shot at them on BST. Just scan them in lots of say 5 or so and sell them on BST. I have lots of buyers looking for average condition Semi-keys. Give us small timers a shot at the coins. It don't cost anything but a little time to try to sell them on BST. Price em right and they should sell. Pics are a must though.
    Ambro I just bought a D mint marked Dollar gold and I think I will just sell it to a big time dealer rather than giving you a chance to buy it. Just Kidding!!! I did not buy one but hopefully you get my drift. I am not mad at all. Just trying to make a point.
    We can't let the big timers get everything or guys like me will soon disapear. And collectors will be sorry if we do. Does that make sense?
    Seriously give us on CU a chance and if they don't sell you can always sell to the big dealers. Us small time B&M guys always need decent coins to sell because the big time dealers are buying up all the semi key stuff. I sure did use a lot of words to try to make a simple point but without the small time dealers the collector will suffer because the bigs will control all the coin market and the prices will go up for the average collector.

    You'd probably make the most money by putting them in albums and selling them as (near) complete sets -- I'm presuming you don't have rolls of 09SVDBs or 14Ds!
