[QUOTE="JPeace$, post: 3359998, member: 42727"]First off, are you a coin collector? Do you have any knowledge of this hobby? As others have said, be very careful in handling these coins. DO NOT CLEAN or WIPE THEM with ANYTHING! 1) Buy a book on Morgans "Official RedBook: A Guide Book of Morgan Dollars" 2) Buy a book on VAM's 3) Buy clear airtite holders for Morgans 4) Buy cotton gloves or finger cots. Something to protect the coins from the oils on your hands 5) Buy the book ANA Grading Standards You can buy all of the above at Wizard Coin Supply online. With the above, you'll be able to handle the coins safely and have reference material to start understanding what the hoard potential is from a financial perspective. Do this first, then sort by year and mintmark. Once you have that done, I suggest you come back to this site and post the inventory. There are many Morgan collectors on the site and we'll be able to help guide you with the find. DO NOT sell any of the Morgan's until you know what you have.[/QUOTE]
