I am new to coin collecting by way of a family member having the wife and I hold their coins. Went through most of them last night and tried to identify with a U.S Coin book I bought. At times it was confusing and I was not sure if the coin in the book was the same as the one I was holding. All the coins I currently have are silver, (dollars, half dollar, quaters, dimes and nickles) ranging in dates from 1880’s to 1971 and there quite a few of some. I weighed the entire amout and there is 11.6 pounds of coins. I would like to take them to a “reputable” coin collector for a better assesment on what I have. Can anyone point me to a good coin collector in my area, I am in the Atlanta GA area. PM me with your email if you would like a couple of photo's, file size exceeds forumn size limit.
