A few years ago, if my clients wanted to sell their investment (rare) coins, they would give them to us and we would take them to a large National Coin Show. There we would have an audience of the top buying companies in the country who all have customers both collectors and investors that would be waiting with baited breath to see what treasures they were able to buy from me and my clients. That was the arena where we could hope for the greatest returns for our clients. And while there are many major coin shows a year, the trading and chasing the ultimate dollar for coins has changed.
