<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 322002, member: 4552&quot;]WELCOME TO THE EDUCATIONAL FORUM.</p><p>Basically what huntsman53 said. To only add to this, keep far away from coin shops. In general they will give you a low, low price on everything hoping you will sell it to them. Also, any coin dealers anywhere. Once they sence you are not aware of coins values, most will low ball you as much as possible.</p><p>I suggest you buy a Coin Book called The Red Book. Even if you find one a few years old, it will give you an idea of coin prices and values and grades. You may find one at a coin show, coin store, flea market or even a used book store. The latest is 2008 but a few years old is OK for general info. You could also find them on the Walmart web site for books at a really low price. </p><p>You should sit down and attempt to document all the coins as to at least dates and type of coin. If nothing else you could look up approximate values on some coin web sites such as PCGS. They have a substantial price guide but is badly over valued. </p><p>The main thing is to take your time and learn what is there.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
