<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Seattlite86, post: 2678030, member: 59737&quot;]First of all, I&#039;m sorry for your loss.&nbsp; I pray you and your family are doing well and through or making it through the grieving process.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is absolutely the place to get informed on what you have, their values, and if there is anything notable in the collection.&nbsp; We don&#039;t need high resolution shots to begin with, just decent ones that let us see the whole coin and the dates.&nbsp; If you have tons of coins, take a group photo and we can tell you if we think anything should be further evaluated.&nbsp; PCGS has a priceguide that is way overpriced, but will at least signal when you have a gem.</p><p><br /></p><p>A few short tips:</p><p>Don&#039;t clean anything!&nbsp; Don&#039;t even think about it.</p><p>Don&#039;t touch the face of the coins, hold them on the rims.</p><p>Don&#039;t drag coins across the table, put them on a towel/cloth and pick them up/set them down.</p><p>Learn, learn, learn before you sell.&nbsp; The value of the coin goes up tremendously when you have the knowledge.&nbsp; Dealers and buyers rip people off so often because they have knowledge you do not.&nbsp; Knowledge is power, and in this case, money.</p><p>Don&#039;t go telling the world what you have, or at least don&#039;t tell your neighbors and local grocery clerks.&nbsp; Word gets around, at least here, you can be anonymous.&nbsp; It would be a shame that you make yourself a target by telling a friend, who tells a friend what you have and then they try to take what&#039;s yours.</p><p>Don&#039;t rush to decisions, haste makes waste.</p><p><br /></p><p>You will get honest advice from people here, but some of us can be a bit short and direct.&nbsp; Don&#039;t take it personally; your patience will be rewarded with knowledge.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you have any specific questions, I collect both US and World coins and have a plethora of websites for you to browse from depending on what you have for a collection.&nbsp; I also know dealers and friends who buy coins.&nbsp; Feel free to message me personally with any questions you have and I&#039;ll do my best to answer them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
