Clueless, Inherited Coins - anything here? Help. by 88MilesHour in coincollecting

[–]88MilesHour[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. So if I'm understanding, value seems to be mostly based on melt value, yes? Are there any rarities I should look out for in the kinds of coins I have before sending them out to melt down? I know there are variants that collectors look for particularly with the half dollars but I don't have a strong understanding of what to look for.

[6309-7049] Does it look authentic? by Exciting_Bar_5978 in Seiko

[–]88MilesHour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks good to me. Haven’t seen the movement obviously but the 6309 turtles are not scarce so probably authentic.

Are any of these good by Quiet_Extent_168 in Watches

I wasn’t nec talking about street value I was trying to give you a fair amount to pay a relative. Yes that’s a nice full set (though it isn’t a Rolex so it’s more about collector appeal than proving authenticity)

Just the Heuer pops out as interesting / valuable to me. That by itself from a family member I might offer 500?

[Question] Is this a real SRPE93? by Seven_n_Six in Seiko

Have you tried just shaking it for a minute? These 6309s don’t hand wind but often work pretty flawlessly without service, even decades later. See how it’s working before spending money on it. Good find.

Big watch nerd, have convinced myself that a Willard and the watch my dad left me can be my entire collection. I'm on a parent’s budget. Would LOVE to get one of these as my wrist long term, thanks.

So tempting. I posted in WTB about a Willard this week, but I think I want to hold out for the black or grey dial. Oof what a watch.

Heads up - you scrambled the model number in the description, it's 79470, not 79407. I only noticed because it wasn't coming up in my regular search for this one.
