<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lilcatwoman, post: 39915, member: 2468&quot;]Thank you, Mike, for all the good information.&nbsp; It&#039;s a little overwhelming, though; it just shows me how much I really *don&#039;t* know about coins.&nbsp; I&#039;ll get a book on coins as you suggested and, in a few minutes, I&#039;ll do as you suggested and check ebay.&nbsp; I had looked on ebay a little before but not much, because I wasn&#039;t sure if the prices on ebay are accurate.&nbsp; I know when I&#039;ve looked at other types of things on ebay, the items generally sold for a lot less than what you pay retail (which makes sense, since they&#039;re auctions)&nbsp; So what&#039;s on ebay is a pretty good indication of the value?&nbsp; But, I guess value is defined as what someone is willing to pay for something, though.</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;Or hook up with someone you know and trust,and I mean that ,,know and trust nothing less.This is an order to you-do not do anything until you know at least some basics otherwise you will get burned..</p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s just it:&nbsp; I don&#039;t know anyone, so I&#039;m not sure how to go about this.&nbsp; So, I appreciate your advice.&nbsp; Several months before my Dad died, he asked me to try to find out what they are worth, and I found a couple of guys on the online bulletin board at work who said they could do that for me, but I don&#039;t know them, so I&#039;m not sure that they are trustworthy.&nbsp; Someone else suggested I take them to a shop here but, again, how do I know if they&#039;ll tell me the right thing?</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, I&#039;m in Charlotte, NC, which is a long way from CA.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; Thanks, again, for all of your help.</p><p><br /></p><p>Best,</p><p>Jamie[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
