[QUOTE="jeankay, post: 342724, member: 12159"]Actually I am trying to find out how much the coins are worth at melt value because I don't want to look like the amateur I am and get embarrassed or ripped off. The Morgan is an 1883, but was plated and put into a pendant. It has had it's share of abuse and has probably lost all of its numismatic value. The Washington quarters are not good enough for my album so I doubt they would be worth much of anything except melt. The one SLiberty is quite worn and you cannot even see the year on it. The other coin is nearly completely worn on both sides and I cannot determine what was suppose to be there. The only reason I thought it might be a Liberty nickel is because of what is left of the outline of the bust most resembles the Liberty. I know it has no numismatic value in this state. And seeing it is copper and nickel, not really worth keeping. Maybe I should toss it in a fountain somewhere. I used my 'My Weigh' MX-300 SE scale to weigh the coins and so far it has been right on the mark comparing it to the Red Book. Thanks for trying to help me out on this. jeankay[/QUOTE]
