<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hairy Houdini, post: 3163567, member: 97506&quot;]Hi,</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m new to this forum and a complete ignoramus about numismatics. Back in the 70s, I got talked into taking investment advice from a friend of a friend. One of the investments were some &quot;rare&quot; coins that turned out to come from the <i>New England Rare Coin Galleries</i>. Sometime in the 80s, I took them to someone who told me they actually decreased in value. I later learned that the company had been sued for fraud and went out of business. I packed the coins up and more or less forgot about them.</p><p><br /></p><p>I was cleaning out some old boxes recently and came across them. Now I am wondering if after all these years, they are worth anything. </p><p><br /></p><p>I tried to upload scanned copies of the photos that came with the coins, but I got an error message, so I uploaded them to this Dropbox folder.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dmtvzt15k5924l6/AAC3ONmGWpnlm88Vc4euMSjQa?dl=0" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dmtvzt15k5924l6/AAC3ONmGWpnlm88Vc4euMSjQa?dl=0" rel="nofollow">https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dmtvzt15k5924l6/AAC3ONmGWpnlm88Vc4euMSjQa?dl=0</a></p><p><br /></p><p>There are 5 coins including, </p><ul> <li>1883 US dime (I think it&#039;s a dime)<br /> </li> <li>1898 US dime</li> <li>1908 $20 gold coin</li> <li>1917 US quarter</li> <li>1929 US dime</li> </ul><p>What&#039;s the best way for me to get at least a ballpark estimate of their worth?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
