What would be realistic?

[sellerstacker]

I am looking to offload some pre 1920 and pre 1946 coins (call it scrap though the vast majority are at least in fine grade), and some John Pinches silver sets. I am expecting 20% above the spot for pre 1920 and the rest at the spot. Is this realistic and if so what is the best place to sell? I don't have too much confidence in eBay. In terms of quantity, the lot would be about 70kgs.

I believe the forum is still a good place to sell and if selling in bulk I'm sure you will find a buyer on here. Not too sure on values though for this kind of stuff but have seen it sell on here before.

The forum would be a good place to put the coins / rounds up for sale. It won't cost you anything to advertise and general payment is by bank transfer or paypal F&F. 
Your only issue is you have no trading reputation.
i would put the bits and pieces you have up for sale in the trading section. Show photos and put a paper with username and current date visible. This way buyers know you have got the goods.
See what happens. 
It is sometimes suggested that if a new seller is willing to send the items before payment then the lack of a trading history doesn't matter. If you deal with a well established member then you will not be diddled and feed back for a well recognised name on the forum helps your reputation and then other members will be happy to trade.

I am a fan of pre-decimals, so would love to see pictures of those coins and medals👍.

Thanks sounds like a good starting point. I will list some of my stuff here. I will start with small £15 - £20 articles and see where things take me.

Hi - my recommendation for selling this stuff is as follows:

Pre-1920:

Crowns & Double Florins - list individual years with pic as people like these and collect them.

Half Crowns & Florins - small lots of 5 to 10 coins seems favourite unless it’s very rare, also easy enough to sell individually.

everything else - often easiest to sell in larger batches by weight unless you know your coins to be particularly good condition or rare.

post 1920 50%:

Sell in lots by weight at spot or just above.

 

I buy and sell a bit of pre-decimal and there’s always a market. I’ve brought plenty from here when it’s keenly priced and my observation it sells quickly and reliably to forum members. Good luck with whatever you decide to do
