My mother in law died yesterday. She was 94, in perfect health, and had a massive heart attack. Can't beat that.
Anyhow, my wife came home last night with a box of all her papers and what not. There were a lot of coins in it. Most were just coins, but there were also a bunch of dollars, half-dollars, quarters, and dimes from 1880 to 1930. I looked them all up on line and none are valuable (oh well); most are about worth 15X face value at wholesale. Perhaps $500 in total.
So my question.... is that just the value of the silver in them, or do they have some value as coins? That would affect how I go about selling them.
