<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 814056, member: 4552&quot;]Go back and mention that she should first figure out what she has. Ask if she has access to the internet and then mention some of the sites where coin prices are listed. Also, you may want to mention if there is a coin store in the area, she should stop by and purchase a Red Book. Or order the Grey Sheet or look up and order a copy of Numismatic News. </p><p>Mainly explain that some or many of those coins could be worth a lot of money and she should take her time doing her own evaluating. </p><p>Other suggestions might be for her to ask other family members if they know anything about coin prices or how to find out. </p><p>If she does have access to the internet you may suggest she join this forum and ask for some prices right here. </p><p>Regardless of what you do the right thing is to alwasy attempt to help others so that someday someone may help you. Sort of wishfull thinking but sometimes does work.</p><p>Of course being a nice person could backfire too. At a flea market near me a seller had several bins full of coins on his table. One was all foreign coins and two others all US coins. Like socks where one size fits all, he had one price for all coins. For weeks I dug through them and found many, many coins worth a lot of money. So I gave him a price guide in the form of the Numismatic News paper. He woke up and started putting his coins in 2x2&#039;s. He started charging what coins are worth. I lost my cheap access to coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
