[QUOTE="RaceBannon, post: 1078425, member: 25357"]Sorry to hear about your grandfather. That is an awesome hoard he left you. I also inherited part of my grandfather's collection after he passed. Beyond the dollar value, he passed me a love for the hobby as a result of inheriting his collection. Coin collecting has become one of my passions. I echo the advice of others on this forum; go buy yourself a "RedBook". Commonly known as A Guide Book of United States Coins by R. S. Yeoman. That will allow you to identify any key date coins that might be worth a substantial premium. Also on pg 412 of the RedBook, there is a bullion value table which will give you melt value for all the common silver US coins. The best link I've seen on line for checking the spot value of all your silver coins is this: [URL]http://www.silvercoinstoday.com/silver-calculators/us-silver-coin-calculator/[/URL] Good luck and please share the results of your hoard search with us![/QUOTE]
