Ziplock bag number 3, all American.

I'm really digging that 36 wheat.

That Philippines coin is worth $3~$5.

So far the only special coin we've seen is your 1803 Dime.

The rest of the coins are average Joe's you can find in any walk-in coin shop and in better grades. I see Churchill Crowns for 50 cents each (typically dozens of those when I visit the shop). They look silvery but I believe its a cupro-nickel (75% copper and 25% nickel) coin. They are enjoyable though.

The Barber coins here are pretty much scrap silver, except for the 1913 Dime that looks to be in a somewhat more decent condition compared to ones I see loose in a box at a shop.

 

Again, I would direct your attention to the 1896-S Barber dime. Do tell me where to find one of those at scrap prices.

 

You might want to invest in a bottle of Nic-a-date acid and see if you can bring out some dates on the Buff nickles, for fun.
I think the coolest thing in the group is the 1939 Worlds' Fair token which looks to be in nice condition.

 

Very cool coins, glad to see you are having fun going through them.

 

Like said above, the 1896-S Dime isnt bad, without a doubt over melt. Im guessing you could probably pull $35 to $50 bucks out of that one. The worlds fair token is cool too, might be worth a little something, nothing crazy but im sure some people would like it and love to have it.

 

The 1895 s quarter should bring a little more then melt as well.

 

Here are the "better" dates I see: 1895-s quarter, 1899-o dime, 1896-s dime, 1913 dime bc of the details left, 1902-s dime?? (lower grade tho), 1883-no cents nickel bc has some detail left (liberty above the face), 1916-s wheat (as long as it's not the one covered in white gunk on the reverse) ... As has already been pointed out the biggest one is the 96-s dime and this is all relative. Nothing close to the 1803 piece.

These dates I've listed are "better" in that they might have a lower mintage or a higher than melt value "worth" ... but it all depends on how you choose to sell and who you sell to in order to maximize value. With stuff like this though you'd probably just be best served dumping it on ebay with some nice pictures in single lots for the nice stuff and group lots for the not-better-date stuff. No real need grading anything here. I will admit I did not look at anything foreign or the medals because I know next to nothing about them.

Oh the peace dollar and possibly the bicentennial pieces will have silver value as will the '66 kennedy. Hope this stream of consciousness helped.

 

The 1944-D 10 centavos? These were minted in huge numbers and unless a truly gem MS coin it's pretty much worth a little over it's melt value which is around $1. Might be lucky to get $2 via Ebay due to it being a curiosity though.

 

I thank you for your concerns about my appraisal. I figure I could buy that coin, which appears to be in at least EX but is more in the MS+ condition, for somewhere between $1.50 to $2.00 plus shipping. Unless you are never supposed to factor in shipping cost, I would say my estimate was pretty close.

Your link didn't work. But a quick search shows the last four single coins of this type sold for $2, 1.84, .99, and 1.50. Which doesn't factoring in shipping received or the fee's a seller pays.

Reaserch further. With shipping, each one of those coins sold with shipping, right at or over $5 and none of those were as nice as the one posted here. If you look at your link and find one as nice as this one, you will see many sold for nearly twice that.

 

$2.00 + $2.32 shipping
$1.84+ $2.00 shipping
$.99 + $2.99 shipping
$1.50+$1.00 shipping
None near the same grade as OP's coin.

Only one that sold for a dollar.

 

It looks like @Hommer and @Blissskr are in violent agreement here.

If a coin sells for $4 ($2 plus $2 shipping) on eBay, you'd get less than $2 for it (after eBay/PayPal fees), but you'd pay $4 for it.

I like the 10 centavos; I'm not shopping for them, but I'd certainly keep that one if I found it.
