[QUOTE="Dollar1948, post: 635980, member: 17239"]I know where I would start, if you are in no hurry to get this accomplished and you think you may enjoy looking at these coins with a little more detail. I would start a Micro-soft Excel work book and have various tabs for each country. I would then compile a spread sheet within the appropriate tab, and record the date demonination and any other comments you may seem fit. While you are at it, separate them accordingly so you can find them with ease later. Once the whole spreadsheet is complete, format it nice, and print her off. Without bringing the coins in, take the spreadsheet (or email it) to a coin dealer that specializes in world coins and ask him if he sees any key dates or coins that warrant a better look-see. Put it this way, if you want to fully understand what you got, ya got to start somewhere. I wish i had the opportunity to dig through boxes of unknown like that. Sounds like fun.[/QUOTE]
