<p>[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 2387233, member: 36230"]Like the other gentleman said, one can't just pick the highest listed already highly debatable "values" and say that's what a coin "might" be worth. I remember times watching people insist whatever dog they thought gem was highly valuable by simply picking the highest listed "value", PR or BS, in whatever "guide" they chose and expecting a windfall, but simply doesn't work that way. Unfortunately, and aside from the foreign, the total best case retail on the lot isn't anywhere even remotely close to your brother's guess. However, this shouldn't, and I hope it doesn't, matter to you. The coins, which are fine collectibles, if I've understood correctly, were a gift from an older gentleman to a young one, and should be cherished because of it. Tis indeed a fine gift and generous act of kindness, and I do hope your gratitude was made very clear. Congrats, Andy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
