<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 2678107, member: 27832&quot;]Welcome to CoinTalk. I&#039;m sorry for the sad circumstances that brought you here, but glad you&#039;ve found us.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m glad you already know to avoid &quot;Cash for Gold&quot; and the like; those places have their uses, but this isn&#039;t one of them. I also hope you&#039;ll heed our advice not to try cleaning anything!</p><p><br /></p><p>There are plenty of great details flying around the thread already, but I&#039;d like to ask a few more general questions:</p><p><br /></p><p>1) How many coins are you talking about? Dozens, hundreds, thousands? There are different strategies that come into play depending on that answer. (For example, it&#039;s probably not worthwhile to start out by photographing and posting a hundred coins individually.)</p><p><br /></p><p>2) Are the coins mostly in folders or individual holders, or are they in rolls and loose in bags?</p><p><br /></p><p>3) Are most of the coins fairly recent (less than 50 years old), or are there many older ones?</p><p><br /></p><p>4) Are they mostly US coins, or are there many foreign ones (assuming you&#039;re in the US)?</p><p><br /></p><p>There are plenty more questions, but the answers to these will help us figure out what to ask next.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
