<p>[QUOTE="National dealer, post: 26657, member: 487"]Possibly but unlikely. While there is no way to determine the quality of your coins without seeing them, some coins have good value regardless of wear.(date and mintmark must be readable) Now damaged coins will lower the value. For a large collection, you should first seperate the coins by denomination, then sort by year and mintmark. Once you have a rough idea, then you can contact a dealer in your area. Do not accept the first offer that they make for your holdings. Be sure to ask if there is an apprasial fee. Most dealers charge something if the coins will not be sold. </p><p>It is worth paying a little something to receive a true value for your coins. Try two seperate dealers for values. After this, you can use tools such as completed auctions on Ebay to see how much a current coin in the same grade is selling for. (You must know the grade).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
