[QUOTE="Steve C, post: 1887844, member: 68115"]My father passed away 22 years ago when I was 6, my mother and I kept his coin collection but have never had anyone look at it. Unfortunately I know nothing about the coins or his intent on collecting some of them. None of them are certified, most are loose and probably only a handful are in perfect condition so I don't know where to start. Would anyone be willing to look through the list I made and help me identify any coins I should look closer at? I did look at a few of them on eBay and Google but the volume of coins is a little overwhelming. I appreciate any help you can give! Here is a breakdown of what I found: [LIST] [*]1854 Dollar Gold Coin (Indian Head) that has two probably significant scratches on it. Not certified but in protective case. [*]Stack of Loose Dimes with dates from the late 50s to early 60s [*]Two 1987 Silver Dollars with some discoloration [*]1904 Penny w/ Indian Head [*]1885 Penny w/ Indian Head [*]1865 2 cent piece [*]One 1884 Nickel with a ‘V’ on the back [*]Two 1885 silver dollars (these both have an old price tag of $12/$13 dollars on them) [*]One 1950 Nickel that was priced at $10.00 [*]One 1968 Nickel [*]Another stack of dimes each in cardboard 2x2s dated from 1909 from 1937 [*]An 1895 quarter [*]A small penny like coin that is marked ‘Denmark Prior to 1750’ The coin is almost unreadable. [*]Silver Certificate Dollars - 1935 C, 1935 D, 1935 E, 1957, 1957 A, 1957 B [*]Loose stack of 1880 silver dollar coins [*]Two 1924 $20 Gold Coins - They do say COPY at the bottom, darn. [*]A LOT of 1964 Loose Coins - Not sure if that was a significant year to him or for coins. [*]Two 1964 uncirculated sets, one from Philadelphia and one from Denver in an envelope from the Treasury in San Francisco. [B]Verified NOT Accented Hair - Thanks Prime Mover[/B] [*]A lot of pre-1982 pennies, pretty much from the 1900s to 70s.
