If you were going to open a new B&M......

...... shop ... with 2 conditions....

1] Specializing in "In Stock" bullion ...
2] Non-modern US coinage.....

What state would you pick and why?

    Illinois. No state sales tax on coins. Sweet.
    Positive BST transactions with: too many names to list! 36 at last count.

    "If you were going to open a new B&M......" I would seek professional, mental health guidance. Cheers, RickO

    It would have to be an area where people are known to have a bunch of disposable income. Yet still have enough free time to go shopping.

    My bet would be work out of the garage and just build a killer website. So all states.

    The only concern I'd have with states like California, Texas, Florida and most of the high population states that have high incomes are they have 100's of coin shops/shows so the dealer must be in line with the pack or rely on Internet sells IMO.

    We have a few in Tulsa and they do very well in circulated collectors coins for the average collector and bullion is huge around here. I'd consider states with a decent population, conservtive in nature, and one that has no or little big coin shows without driving 4 or 5 hours one way. Right now bullion in many of these starved states do quite well since shipping is so high for bags of coins for investments.
