    Welcome to the boards. You'll find most here are more than happy to help out a newbie collector. Post some scans and we'll take a look.

    Cheers,

    Bob

    I take it you are not a collector? Are you interested in coin collecting now that you have gotten your fathers collection or just looking to see what they are worth to put some money in your pocket?

  • Lets see:

    You have 2 Mercury Dimes that look to grade About uncirculated, a 1930 and a 194?(can't make out the last digit)

    You have 1 1888 Liberty Nickel that grade F-12, but looks to have something all over the surface since it's dark.

    You have 1 1986 Gold Eagle Bullion coin, but I cant tell you what size from the scan, but it should tell you if it's a .10 Oz, .25 Oz, .50 Oz, or 1 Oz coin.

    You also have 2 American Silver Eagle Bullion Coins, 1 dated 1991, and 1 dated 1992
  • Thanks. I didnt really know what the gold one was. It says 1/4 oz on it i think.
    I also have alot of ancient coins he gave me as well. Most look like turds, but a few are nice looking.

    LOL. A lot of ancient bronzes have that look. Particularly some of the really early stuff.
