    If sounds like maybe you give each charity half the physical coins, they (the charities)get them appraised, and the charities have to sell them. Run that sequence by the lawyer for clarification. Perhaps the charities have the resources for this.

    You might consider just walking away from being an executor. If you are not a beneficiary and it won't cause too much family discord (ask critics if they would like the position), what's the point? If your uncle didn't see fit to provide for you, what's your obligation? Because you appear to have already performed some duties as an executor, consult a lawyer before withdrawing. I think it's safe to assume that the charities which are beneficiaries would take on the job as executors if you withdraw. However, it would be up to the state or court to decide.

    Or not... the one investment (air quotes) he's showed us was purchased for ~1900$ in 1994 and is selling for ~1300$ now.

    Alan - given that you have now told us what this collection is made up of, I completely agree with the comment I quoted above. Stacks and Heritage would probably have no interest in this collection whatsoever.

    I would do exactly as Jeff suggested and contact APMEX or Provident.

    I think you should also contact the following (in the listed order) for their level of interest in your uncle's coins:

    Minshull Trading (310) 544-4400

    North Bay Rare Coin (707) 287-1919

    Mish International Monetary, Inc. (650) 324-9110

    I think all of the above will pay greater premiums than will APMEX, Provident or the other bullion houses.

    Tell'em Mike sent you.
