<p>[QUOTE=&quot;National dealer, post: 3624, member: 487&quot;]Welcome to the forum, and we are sorry for your loss. As usual our moderator has given very sound advice. With mint and proof sets, the prices are very well established, with the noted exceptions mentioned by our moderator. Also note, that there are varieties of certain years such as type 1 and type 2 coins, along with others. It sounds as if you are on the right track in your task. I would suggest that at some point you have any coin(s) that may end up for sale looked at by a dealer in your area. Because subtle differences can be dramatically different in price, it is always sound advice to have it evaluated. We suggest that you do not sell in haste. After the initial evaluation, have it looked at by another professional, or a well versed collector. Knowledge is the key to this hobby. One last suggestion. Any coin that is in your collection that would be considered a key date or mint mark should be authenticated and certified by one of the major third grading companies. (PCGS, NGC, ANACS are most recognized within the hobby). This will ensure their value to a degree. Everyone here on this site is willing to help you in understanding this great hobby. Please take advantage of this.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
