When I entered, I was not greeted, and I asked about having someone look at my coins. I was told to wait in line so that the specialist could look at them. I had no intention of selling them, but after a few minutes of waiting, one of the 2 unoccupied workers approached me and told me they would buy them for 200 dollars a coin.
