I am actually Alonzo's daughter, Marti. Daddy has collected coins for a long time, but I was never aware of the extent of it until I had to place him and my mother in an assisted living facility earlier this year. Daddy is 88 years old, a veteran of WWII and in pretty good health. He and mom both have dementia issues. i'm just glad they remember who I am. I guess that leaves me a little scared about my future!!
Anyway, he has a tlot of US coins and a few foreign coins. My goal is to sell these coins so that they can use the money. Dad's mental state is that he probably doesn't even remember collecting. And I wouldn't bring the coins into the facility because they could be stolen. So if anyone wants to buy some of these coins, or wants me to hunt for a particular one, let me know.
One coin I do know is of great value is the 1882 Ten Dollar Gold Coin. In excellent condition and stored in its own little box. He also has 2 1900 Lady Liberty Dollars. Let me know if anyone wants to buy these.
