If you inherited the coins, start with an appraisal. Knowing what is genuinely scarce versus filler changes how you sell.
Pull the metal and the key coins aside from the everyday ones, and shop the lot to several buyers. See the appraisal guide for the details.
Get more than one offer, appraise anything scarce first, keep bullion separate from collector coins so each is priced properly, and leave your coins uncleaned — a wiped coin always sells for less.
