<p>[QUOTE="BALD SPARTAN, post: 1054416, member: 22484"]Well I try to keep a list of the grade I believe the coin to be and the amount that I payed for it when I acquired it. There are several software programs that you can try out that allow you to build your own records. The trouble with non-graded coins is that no two people grade the same and the market is always moving. I have shown and given my spouse a list of internet sites and books that give current prices and metal values on the type of coins I collect. I quess the best you can do is leave them as much knowledge as you can and arm them with resources to help them at least know a general understanding of what you have left them and a detailed letter with information on any rare or high value coins in your collection. In the long run tho it will be up to the family as to whether the price is right to sell your collection or keep it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
