<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BUncirculated, post: 1417328, member: 29581&quot;]Let me clarify something here. </p><p><br /></p><p>I did not state any opinion on value of the only coin you posted a pic of. With the wear to it and all, my opinion on value would be from melt value, because this coin contains .77344 ounces of pure silver and has a melt value of $24.44 as of the close of the market yesterday, to maybe slightly more than melt, as much as $4 over melt.</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as your husband&#039;s thought on the worth millions, well many people who find old things and think they&#039;re worth tons of money. In reality; however, the items worth and value will depend on several factors, including but not limited too, rarity(how many were produced), original condition(not altered or restored), and the current condition(good, excellent, fair, or left to be desired). </p><p><br /></p><p>While there some coins that can realize a 7 figure value at auction, they are usually of extreme rarity, and condition is better than would be expected for the age. </p><p><br /></p><p>I would tend to think that you wouldn&#039;t have anything like that in your in-laws safe. </p><p><br /></p><p>Best advice I can give you is take then entire collection to a local and reputable dealer in your area, or even a coin show near you, and have a couple of dealers look over the entire collection and give you their opinion on grades, rarities, and value. </p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
