<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jenesaisrien, post: 985419, member: 27116&quot;]My grandfather left me his collection of Franklin Mint &quot;History of the US&quot; bronze coins.&nbsp; They&#039;re 200 coins, this series runs 1776-1976 (the coins aren&#039;t from 1776, they just depict historic events in this range).&nbsp; He has the unopened display cases, and all the coins are still in the mailing envelopes he got them in.&nbsp; The envelopes are open, but the coins and their containers are unopened, and the cases holding the coins (in the containers) are unopened as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m planning to sell this collection on eBay, but I don&#039;t want to decrease the coins&#039; value by opening them up.&nbsp; However, if I open them up, they&#039;re really bulky.&nbsp; Should I throw away the unopened containers?&nbsp; What about the smaller case holding the coins?&nbsp; I would like to know if anyone has any advice about this, I don&#039;t want to accidentally devalue my grandfather&#039;s collection.&nbsp; I&#039;m sadly completely ignorant about coin collecting and anything you can tell me would help me out.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
