<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Morgan1878, post: 588099, member: 17869&quot;]In going through my inherited collection, it seems that there are some coins that are not worth saving for collectible purposes. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I have rolls of common date Mercury and Roosevelt dimes in AG - F condition. Also rolls of common date Washington quarters in G-EF condition. As well, rolls of common date Walking Liberty and Franklin halves in AG-VF condition. In addition rolls of EF-UNC 1964 dimes and Kennedy halves. Lastly, common date Morgans and Peace dollars in AG-G condition.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i>It seems to me that I might be better served by unloading these to melt and then with the proceeds buying collectible quality coins that I want.</i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Although a number of the above coins are worth more than melt value according to price guides, it would seem that it the market for most common date coins are for the higher grades. I&#039;m not sure who is going to buy for example, a VF 1942 Mercury dime. And with the quantity of coins in various denominations, it might take a long time to unload them.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Is this a reasonable strategy, or am I missing something?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
