i dont have a digi cam but can someone tell me how to grade them

If you want to grade them yourself, get a copy of the Red Book of US Coins from your local bookstore. They tell how to grade all US coins, and it gives a general idea of their value.

If you want a TPG (Third Party Grader) to grade them for you....... most people consider PCGS as the #1 grading service, but you have to purchase a 1 year membership. The price and other info can be found through links on their homepage. ANACS is considered in the top 3 TPG'ers. They don't have a yearly membership. Google them and you'll get all the details.

Good luck! Let us know what happens.

They are nice to own, but probably not worth the grading fees. Just keep 'em as is.

It's always nice to find things in the basement. You won't believe what I found last week.
