[QUOTE="The_Cave_Troll, post: 251258, member: 1674"]I would estimate the fair retail value of this list of coins to be between $5 and $10. Those 2 slabbing companies are known overgraders and it is unlikely that the coins are actually anywhere near as n ice as those slabs would indicate. The two proofs are worth a few dollars between them, the circulated silver dime is worth 90 cents, the 1964 quarter is worth $2.25, everything else is worth about its face value. Here is a general rubrick for the rest of the stuff you have in UNC or PNCS holders: All silver coins (dimes, quarters, and halves) from 1940-1964 are worth their melt value (about 8 to 9 times face at the moment). Proofs are worth a little bit, but from 1956 to the present, not more than about 10 times face value (with a few exceptions). And all coins 1965-date are worth less than 2 times face value. I hope this gives you a general idea of how you did on your purchase, and an idea of what to look for value-wise in your next purchase. By the way, thanks for not taking my earlier harshness as a personal attack, it sincerely was meant to be as honest as I could, I meant/mean no disrespect or personal insult.[/QUOTE]
