    Most likley, but they are not just thrown in a box, they are individually wrapped, and look like they were well taken care of...

    This was all new to me the only coins I ever collected were when I was 12-15..this collection is a great one and everyday that goes by, I learn more and more about it. This forum I learned most of my info, and im glad I joined it..

    I most likley will not start a collection myself, I have a few other hobbies, but when and if I decide to sell this in bulk or a little at a time, I will definitley be on this site

    Ebay is a joke anymore..everyone tries to get something for nothing, and backs out on deals...

    I want to sell to a collector who is going to appreciate the time put into collecting these coins and will expand their collection.

    Well It has been a few weeks of sorting, and sorting and cataloging....There is quite a few coins in this collection, and the past few weeks I have been carefully reading up on grading standards and how they grade coins.

    I would venture to say, over half the loose coins are in books, and not graded, but I am going out on a limb and saying they look uncirculated and some look new...

    What criteria and which coins would be the best to be graded?

    And, would it be worth the investment???
