Finally! The poll. What range is your collection valued?

joeykoins · January 3, 2015 12:31PM

What range would you say is your collection valued?

joeykoins · January 3, 2015 12:43PM

Now, we'll find real results!

joeykoins · January 3, 2015 12:44PM

I love the person that voted in the #1. slot.

astrorat · January 3, 2015 12:48PM

Please change the title of the thread so it is specific to the poll.

messydesk · January 3, 2015 12:52PM

And add a "just show results" option.

Goldbully · January 3, 2015 12:55PM

Good job joeykoins....Creating a poll on the coin forum is quite cumbersome on first go.

Once you figure it out.....it's a piece of cake.

A "range" implies a low and high value, but you just have one number. Is that the low or the high?

Example: If your collection is worth $250, would you pick #1 or #2?

Perhaps
$100 - $499
$500 - $999
$1000- $2499
etc. etc.

The range I think he's referring to is $100-$1mil

But the bigger question is - what's it to you, OP? Judging by previous threads on the same topic, I suspect the comments to follow will be along the lines of 'none ya' or 'buzz off'

OKbustchaser · January 3, 2015 1:25PM

Where is the "It's worth a whole lot more than I could sell it for." option?

Thank you, my friend. Yes, it took some doing and many tries.

According to PCGS - more than it will ever sell for.

My collection is worth about $43.725. I got 15 - half cents and they don't add much to a collection. Neither do 2 or 3 centers.

Depends who I want to sell them to (or how desperate I am to liquidate).
I will sell my coins after the last can of beans is gone from my cupboard.

joeykoins · January 4, 2015 3:44AM

After 100 votes, I see there are 13 collectors here with a nearly or more than $1,000,000 value of their collection. Beautiful and congratulations! They actually can open up their own museum probably. I thought there would be more than 13. Thanks guys for voting everyone!

RYK · January 4, 2015 4:08AM

Is this "Price is Right" rules? That is, the closest number without going over?

LanLord · January 4, 2015 4:13AM

Between $1 and $1,000,000

crypto79 · January 4, 2015 4:14AM

I chose 500$ face , who knows or cares what somebody will pay down the road.

By definition, that is a false statement. The market is the market.

DennisH · January 4, 2015 4:49AM

That is solely between me and my wife.

TJM965 · January 4, 2015 4:56AM

It was worth 3 times more when silver was $48 an oz.

PerryHall · January 4, 2015 5:03AM

<< I chose 500$ face , who knows or cares what somebody will pay down the road. >>

If you're married I imagine your wife will care after she divorces you or if you should die.

This forum skews high, versus the larger population of coin collectors.

124 responses currently, not the best constructed poll but a very nice statistical distribution nonetheless.

One does suspect that perhaps a few of the million+ responses are not true, and are the equivalent of "just show me the answers"

Yeah, could be? I hope not though. I love all the #1. voters!

It's the Internet where anyone can be a multi-millionaire.

astrorat · January 4, 2015 10:38AM

<< What range would you say is your collection valued? >>

The choices are not ranges. How do you wish respondents to answer for "in between" values, such as $4000? $75,000? $300,000?

ricko · January 4, 2015 12:08PM

It is just a 'ballpark' poll - put a label on it or move on.....Cheers, RickO

demodigger · January 4, 2015 12:22PM

my collection is worth millions in turkey

On the contrary, it is worth a whole lot more to me than I could sell it for. Otherwise, I wouldn't still own it. Market value has absolutely nothing to do with personal value.

There are a lot of dealers that use this forum. If they are including their inventory, then the million+ votes may be close to accurate.

johnny9434 · January 5, 2015 5:07AM

$37.00 or so

joeykoins · January 6, 2015 4:20AM

As of 1-6-2015, 1:00 P.M. Central time it looks as if #7. ($50,000) range has the most votes! #10. is kinda fishy, no? Maybe true maybe not? Thanks once again for your valuable input and time. My curiosity has flourished.

I took it to mean that if you select a number, say $50,000, you are saying your collection is between the previous number and $50K.

I don't think inventory should be included in the value of a collection. Just sayin.

keyman64 · January 6, 2015 5:26AM

Since I am selling everything, I should have a pretty good idea soon.

LindeDad · January 6, 2015 5:43AM

Book, Face, Melt or Price List, or actual cost?

crypto79 · January 6, 2015 6:04AM

Double posts make responses not funny

The "Book" price.

Yes, that would round off one's collection I would say? because nobody really knows what a coin/coins will sell for in the end.

Type2 · January 6, 2015 8:54AM

Where is the $50 range.

ambro51 · January 6, 2015 9:09AM

Much too wide a spread between 8-9

Finally! The poll. What range is your collection valued?
