[QUOTE="Brett_in_Sacto, post: 2617920, member: 71510"]I would go take the collection to at least 2 coin dealers to learn about what you have, and their proposed value. The other thing to consider is that some coins have a lot higher value once graded - especially the rare dates and mint marks. It may be worth spending some time looking at a price guide at pcgs.com to understand this. The prices there are "full retail" which is not what you will expect to get for the coins, but it will show you the relative value between coins. What part of the country are you in? You might be able to attend a coin show in your area and have several people look at them. Whatever you do - don't take the first answer - or offer. Homework will most surely pay off in this case. Good luck![/QUOTE]
