<p>[QUOTE="lucyray, post: 1098760, member: 24565"]Just a follow-up comment, if anyone wondered what ever happened.. I finally made the trip in to the 'big city' of Traverse, to the only coin shop I know of. They were absolutely awesome there..the first 'young man' took a look and gave me some song and dance, and I threw a few questions at him (some things I picked up on this site!) and he ended up getting the owner to come and speak with me. The owner took one look and said, yes, definitely proof coins. He recommended I leave them as is, in the bags, until I decide what I want to do with them. And he took the time to show me around and educate me on a few things (trivia wise, etc..), let me look at everything they had (lots and lots of it), told me to come and see him with any questions at all, gave me a copy of the latest Coin World magazine that had just come in (wouldn't take my money for it!), and told me of a book he has on order that he felt would be perfect for what I need next to know. Gee, it was fun! They had most everything I've seen here, including even engravings and die plates, and sheets....</p><p>Thank you everyone who advised me here!</p><p>Lucy</p><p>p.s.
