Ill post more pictures if needed. Thanks! IMG_1486.JPG IMG_1485.JPG

    There may be some coins of value but from a quick glance at your list, the first two pages at least seem to be fairly modern foreign coins which are probably not worth very much. Some of the older coins may have some value though and you could simply take the information you've written and type it into google to find out if a coin is potentially valuable that way as well.

    I'm sorry but I don't see anything that makes this an extensive rare coin collection. What makes you think it is rare? Help us out so we can help you out. I would however like to see another picture of the 1776 coin.

    there's only 2 coins here to me that stand out from the others. that Carlos the III 1776 not sure if it's from Mexico or Peru ? and the Great Britain 1 shilling 1873. all your coins are nice, but the grades are only so-so. sorry I could not be of more help to you. all these coins are very common. with thee exception of that Carlos III 1776. your best bet would be taking your coins to a coin shop or the closest next coin show in your state.

    Nice little pile of coins.

    They are not going to make you rich but I hope they will ignite an interest in our wonderful hobby!

    I would love to have acquired these coins, but don't depend on buying a new house with them. Enjoy them and learn a little about them if you wish. Keep them for your kids.

    Thanks to everyone for their input! I am looking to sell the collection, I am not expecting to get rich but these would make somebody happy who holds interest in coins as I do not.

    I think the 1776 2 Reales is a coin from Bolivia. KM# 53.

    @justinber after you have 10 posts on here, you can offer them for sale here. Perhaps some members would advise as to what you should ask.

    I would agree with you on that. Bolivia 1776 PR metal .903 silver,
    grade/value from my 2002 krause world coin catalog (the values might be higher now)
    VG-$16.50 F-$42.50 VF-$60.00 XF-$87.50
    not sure what your coins grade is ???
