I don't know where you are located, but a search for "coin dealer" in Dublin brings up 4 names on www.goldenpages.ie. Strangely a search for "numismatist" brings up nothing, but then, what do I know.

I'm not knowledgeable enough to know whether these coins have more value as coins or for their gold content, but I suggest maybe start with a search in your own town or county.

you could always have a look on ebay and sell directly to buyers

Try the International Coin Fair at the RDS this weekend.

Some of the antique dealers in Powerscourt Townhouse Centre sell sovereigns etc - not sure if they buy though.

I've seen gold coins for sales at auctions in John Weldon Auctioneers in Temple Bar and also at O'Reilly's Auctioneers on Francis Street.

many thanks dont trust e bay. will keep trying thanks

Very advisable. I tried to flag eBay to a potential scam (that's currently on auction today) and they reprimanded me for providing an external link. Muppets.

Warnings here

Not just commemorative stuff. All coins. be v v careful and study the seller's feedback carefully

I think selling it on ebay would be the best as there is less chances of you getting scammed.

Has anyone auctioned anything at O'Reilly's in Dublin? If so, how did you do?
