Quick update, and thanks to @Sword, @Paddy, @Rob and @wlewisiii for the advice back in January. I went with Paddy's option 4 crossed with option 1: the better pieces listed singly, the rest in three job lots, and the storage kit sold separately as Sword suggested. Then some are going to the coin machine in the bank. It indeed took some time! Everything is live now if anyone here is interested.

Hello everyone, I'm a novice collector looking for some guidance. I have a collection of mainly British circulated coins and accessories that I'd like to pass on to better hands. What's included: The coins are mostly £2, £1 and 50p pieces, with some interesting smaller denominations. I've got a nearly complete 2p collection running from 1977 to 2013, plus some duplicates. Some international as well, incl. Chinese, Polish. Photos of most coins attached. Face value totals over £160. The accessories include a coin holder album and wooden display box from Safe Albums, along with some Hartberger coin holders. These were worth over £100 when purchased new. My questions: What might a collection like this realistically be worth? I've had a scan online and looks like £300 could be a reasonable price the coins and accessories combined, but I'd appreciate input from people who actually know what they're talking about! What's the best way to sell something like this? eBay? A dealer? Somewhere else entirely? Any advice would be very welcome. Happy to provide more details or photos if helpful. Thanks in advance!
