Now if you are fed-up with playing with coins, sell the silver to one of those gold and silver places and roll up the rest and take it to the bank. If you still have an interest, buy a "Red Book" of American coins (I assume that is most of what you have). You can now start to look and see if anything you have is worth the big bucks.
