My Dad dealt in coins for decades. Crazy thin margins. So many times people came in with a “20,000” collection they assembled. Basically client spent years of buying 3x over actual value as an “investment” They were always disappointed with the actual value. At some point I calculated his hourly earnings at around a dollar an hour. But kept him happy.
