[QUOTE="John Burgess, post: 8195852, member: 105098"]Appreciate you taking the time to get that far for a new member, but I have to be honest, no way to tell which obverse goes with which reverse the way the file is. from the pictures, I see a pretty basic coin accumulation, nothing really stand out in the bunch. the morgan and peace dollars are 90% silver, they could be checked for VAMs with good Obverse and reverse pictures but not with these pictures, dimes dated before 1964 are 90% silver, the quarters before 1964 are 90% silver, a couple of the nickels look to be the war time 35% silver ones. the older than lincoln cents, cents... I have no idea about, many look damaged though. for the morgan dollars, the reverse and date pairings matter, the mintmark on each coin matters if there is one. So I can't tell anymore than melt value about those it shows 8 morgan dollar obverses, and 1 morgan reverse. this is why it's best to do 1 coin, picture of obverse and reverse, at a time, so we all know what goes with what. For this reason I can't do more than tell you what I have told you, I see a coin accumulation, and there isn't much "wow factor" to anything I saw. As far as selling it, there's ebay, or even your local we buy gold and silver guys for the silver stuff. maybe a coin shop local to you might want to make an offer if you brought it in. there's no easy answer with value, but condition really matters, then rarity, and some things can be so rare that condition of the surviving examples doesn't matter much for the pricing. I'm not seeing anything like that from the pictures provided, but I feel like if we went one at a time, obverse and reverse, there might be a diamond in the rough in there somewhere worth a bit more than melt prices.[/QUOTE]
