I'll admit it, if it's not obvious already, I know nothing about collecting coins. That being said, I have in my position several beautiful 1924 (Saint Gaudens), $20 gold coins. Yes, I understand that the coin grading system can be complicated..... sometimes requiring a specialized third party to confirm EXACT condition. A local coin dealer has graded the coins as being in roughly VG+ condition..... at the same time, the dealer only offered me the wholesale rate for gold (approx $1,400 per coin). My question: Is the collectible rate higher? Would it make more sense to sell online, or bring to other local buyers? Just looking to get fair value for the coins. If anyone can recommend good local buyers, I would appreciate it.

Thanks.

If it's a VERY RARE red cent, I'd consider it :)
