<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Reddrum101, post: 1918367, member: 70729&quot;]I am creating this on behalf of my grandmother who owns a rather large coin collection left over from my grandfather. last week about 2 feet of water covered about half of the collection, this includes many state quarter proof sets from the 2000&#039;s and $25 bags of quarters and alot more i have not been able to catalog yet. they were under water for about 2 days the few poof sets i have gotten out have water in the plastic but some other single proofs are water free in their single containers and the bags or still damp. im wondering what i should do to preserve the collection as i have no understanding i came here for advice.</p><p><br /></p><p>should i break open the proof sets and bagged quarters or should i try putting them in a dehydrator to see if i can purge the water out of them without opening the bags, </p><p>i also would like to know if the resale value of the coins diminished due to being in a flood, because a difference in value could be claimed on her flood insurance.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
