<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SSGDavisc, post: 290437, member: 10751&quot;]Hello everyone!&nbsp; I am new to coin collecting&nbsp; but thought it would be a great hobby since I am 100% disabled from the Iraq War. My grandfather passed away a month ago and left me with his entire coin collection. I honestly haven no idea what to do with any of it other than hold onto it nor do I have any understanding what the grading means (MS 65, 66,67 etc.)</p><p>I currently have&nbsp; (5) 1972 proof sets from the U.S. Mint, unopened with the original tape and seals in a blue mint box from the Department of Treasury, an 1890 Morgan Silver Dollar w/error (but have no idea where the error might be or what it would look like, only that it was mentioned in the will), (4) Certified Peace Dollars graded MS 67, and a <u>b</u>right 1901-O Morgan Silver Dollar, VAM-3 error. </p><p>A friend of mine who knows a little bit about coins told me to never open the box even though the Certificate from PCGS said that the Coin sets have a potential value of $1,875,000 if errors and/or cameos were found. (btw, what is a cameo?)</p><p><br /></p><p>anyway, now that I have the box what do i do with it? If i open it will I lose whatever value it has or had? Or should I just leave it sealed and let it collect dust?</p><p><br /></p><p>Any information concerning this would be great. Thank you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
