[QUOTE="jiggysmb, post: 1268933, member: 33251"]Hi guys, I am new to coins but am trying to learn as much as possible. I have learned a lot from these forums, so I thank you all! My grandfather passed and left me some items I have been told are rare, but when I took them to a local coin shop I was offered $3 for everything. My wife and I have searched for days on google/ebay/etc and just dont have anything on these exact items, so I am looking for help determining value, if any. Thank you in advance for taking the time to look. #1 is a $10 Richmond confederate note. I understand that many confederate notes were forged and some novelty/advertisement notes were dated 1864, this one is dated 1861 and on one forum I read these were legit notes and very rare. I could not even locate a picture of one on the web. #2 is a 50 cent Charleston 1862 #3 is a 24k plated 1970 proof set, but the half is 1972... not sure what happened there. I read these were rare before the 90s, but the local shop said I would get more value using them at the store at face value.
