Is it a good idea to sell rare coins to a pawn shop?
You can always ask and see how much they offer for your coins, but I'm sure that a collector would pay more for your stuff. It's a matter of both knowing the real value of the coins and finding the right buyer.
What is the best way to sell old coins?
It depends how much you have and what type of coins you have. Are they collector coins (as in, high grades, key dates, rare coins) or are they junk silver coins (as in, worn silver quarters from the 40s, silver dimes from the 50s, etc.). If they are collector coins, it is better to sell to a reputable dealer. If they are junk silver coins craigslist and eBay are your friends, but dealers and jewelery stores will usually buy them too. Don't go to places like "Cash 4 Gold" or other "Hotel Lobby" sellers. They will often times take 50% or more off the true value of your coins.
