I bought some coins for investment in 1985 from a company called Nusmismatic Investments of New England. And for some reason i can not find them anymore. I dont know where at in New England have nothing on them anymore, I used to get newsletters but they stopped about 8 years ago and I feel for the worst, that they are no longer around and my coins are now crap. I dont have that many i just bought 7 to start but was to gradually get more. the coins are graded by them and are in flips with their card that just states what kind of coin and grade with their name on it. any help would be appreciated. just drop me a message if you know anything about this company from new england area. I was told that they changed their name but not for sure. Mark.
The coins aren't necessarily no good just because the company might be gone. Companies come and go all the time. If you can list what you have, that would be a good place to start.
Just did a quick web search, and apparently "Numismatic Investments of New England", founded by Frank Garofalo, is or was in Salem, NH: http://www.inc.com/magazine/19900101/5005.html http://www.nhb.uscourts.gov/Court_Opinions/Garofalo.001.opn.pdf But even if the company is out of business, your coins should still be worth something ...

It looks like you came out a lot better than some of his other customers if you actually got your coins. As Cholmes75 said, if you list them there is a good chance we can estimate their present value for you.
I realize this is an old thread, but had a similar question. So in response to Cholmes75 here's my list of coins. [TABLE="width: 323"] [TD="colspan: 4"]Numismatic Investments of New England[/TD] ser # Denom Date Grade 16827 LIC 1937 PROOF-65 16714 JFN 1938 PROOF-65 16932 WAQ 1937-D MS-65 17039 MG$ 1879-S MS-63 PL 16245 PC$ 1922 MS-64 [/TABLE]
Do you have the capabilties of posting clear pictures of the coins? I am not familiar with this company, so I can't tell you how stringent their grading standards were, but if you post good pics, our forums experts can give you their best opinion of condition and possible value.
