Selling coins for fun - my story

Vintage Welcome To Egypt Set of 11 Mixed Egyptian Coins Posted in late 2024 and still available!  See  https://www.ebay.com/itm/204994489496

 Since 9/28/24 I’ve sold and shipped  36 items for a  Total of $ 834.05 netting between about $660-$690 per a ChatGPT review, for about  18–$19 per sale. Not a great investment from a pure time-spent point of view but it’s been nice slowly selling off a few coins and getting them to homes of folks who want them. I’m 80% done w a full excel list of my inventory and it’ll probably be close to 1000 coins when I’m done - most of which is just circulated European pocket change but at $18 each that could add up. Avg is likely closer to $6-7 I would guess as I’ve already sold a few of the more valuable ones and remaining are probably mostly “nostalgia” items that will only sell to people who want a coin from a certain year/country reminding them of a person, place, or trip. In other news, I’m on Day 1 of Finance 108 via Northern Virginia Community College:  Princ of Secur Inves. Should be fun!
