As some of you know, I asked some questions early a few weeks ago. Well the Estate has been settled and I am the sole recepient of the Paper Money and Coin collection. The Estate was appraised and the collection value is in the range of 80 to 95K for the collection.....I feel as if this is "Blood Money" and not quite sure how to handle this yet. I must admit that I have done my home work on the collection and learned quite a lot of information. Thank you, to those who have made suggestions and pointed me in the diection of education. Here is an outline of what is there; Aprox 45 oz Gold (coins) all types $2.5, $5, $10, $20, $25, $50 Aprox 12 oz of Platinum Aprox 400 oz Silver ( all ASE Rolls) 50-60 Notes from 1914 thru 1988 Chow....
Sounds like someone enjoyed collecting and is passing it on to you. I would not think of it as blood money, someone thought enough to pass this on to you - take time and enjoy the collection. Don't sell unless you want to or have no interest in learning about the collection. No matter what - take your time to learn what you have.
Congrats on the coins. Hope you didn't have to pay taxes on it though. Thats why it's always best to leave the coins to someone beforehand, and not in a will or such. Guy~
That is the coin collector's dream. My condolences for your loss and congratulations on your incredible new collection. :thumb:
