    I buy lots of coins - both US and World coins, silver and non-silver. That said -- another option is to check your local auction companies. I've seen some coins go for 2x - 4x book value, even for common dates & grades. Even after a normal 20% commission you can normally make more money that way than selling to a coin dealer. Make sure to check your dates and mint marks. If you have a semi-key or key date that is worth good money, even if in only good condition.

    Good call. Check for any key date coins... https://www.pcgs.com/prices/
