My father is selling silver coins to a museum this month. He put out the word to a bunch of his friends who also collect and told them to pass it along to anyone they know who might be interested that he was selling silver coin collections that he had for years. I think that they were all shocked but they also knew that he had some really rare coins.

When the museum called to see if he was serious when he said he would sell silver coins from his collection, he told them yes. They immediately wanted to meet with him to check out the shape of the collection but I think that they had to already know that everything he has is in perfect condition.

They chose to buy ninety percent of what he was willing to sell silver wise and then they even talked him into a few gold coins that he did not plan on getting rid of. The amount of money they offered him was enough to change his mind though. I believe that the entire sale will be finalized by the end of the month. The museum had to file the necessary paperwork and get the funding approved, and that should be done in a few days.
