<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Papa D, post: 947699, member: 26621&quot;]My son who is almost 4yrs old received a old ceramic barrel coin bank full of coins from his Great Grandmother who passed away. </p><p>We decided to take it all out and have a see. We have lots of cool stuff but most of the older stuff is worn pretty bad. For example I have 15 standing liberty quarters with only 1 showing a date still, 1925. I have one, based on the little research I&#039;ve done, that is either a 1916 or 1917 type 1. No date so I&#039;m not sure. Is it of value without the date since its at best a 1917 type 1?</p><p>We have standing liberty half&#039;s that again are badly worn also.</p><p>I&#039;m not interested in selling as they are for my son but I don&#039;t know what to do for storage. Should I buy coin books or individual coin holders etc. or should I just put them back into the coin barrel/bank? I don&#039;t think there is any crazy good stuff here but I really don&#039;t have the knowledge to know. Should I put the effort into separating them for proper protection or let them be as they&#039;ve been for many a year.</p><p><br /></p><p>Standing liberty quarters</p><p>Standing liberty half&#039;s 1917-40&#039;s</p><p>Kennedy half&#039;s 1964</p><p>Franklin half&#039;s 1950-63</p><p>Mercury dimes 1917-45</p><p>Quarters, dimes and nickles from the 30&#039;s to the 70&#039;s</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for any suggestions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
