[QUOTE="novice, post: 43500, member: 2708"]I'm not sure if this should go in here or in the general coin discussion forum, but here goes... I've inherited a good number (I think) of coins recently, some of which I found upstairs in a box in a closet. I know very little about coin collecting, and plan on purchasing a few books to hopefully tell me the values of whatever I have, but couldn't wait long enough. This box contains: Many, many random Buffalo head nickels, 1940-50's half dollars... coin folders with 1913-1938 buffalo nickels, 1916-1945 mercury head dimes, 1909-now lincoln head cents, and a few silver dollars. I'd imagine these are the coins of lesser value in the collection, as the rest is in a safety deposit box. But is any of that worth anything... at all? (though I'd probably have to be worlds more specific.) I'll chose a few random coins that look nice to me... 1886 Silver Dollar, also an 1889, 1921, 1922, and a 1924 (I love the faces on them). They all seem to be in great shape, but again, I'm a novice. I can post pictures if that'd make things easier, if they're at all impressive. I would be more specific, but don't want to take them out of the folders. Again, sorry if I've wasted your time, I just can't wait until the books come in the mail. Thanks!!![/QUOTE]
