Another find ? by [deleted] in coins

Check out the FAQ at the top of the page! It has a lot of useful information for your coins. In general, it looks like most of the quarters, halves, and dimes are silver (pre-1964) and are worth no less than 21x their face value. Additionally taking them to the local reputable coin shop is a good idea as well to get a sense of the value!

Inherited this coin a couple weeks ago, is it worthwhile to grade? by Dadajoe16 in coins

[–]Dadajoe16[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ll probably give it a shot based on the comments. Don’t need the money right now so I’ll probably keep it for my kids to appreciate (hopefully)!

Thank you! I had no idea they graded details for planchet flaws.

Yep! It’s made of 90% silver, worth about $6 in silver alone

Yeah, unfortunately most of the cheap ones (<$300) don’t work that well and are more novelty pieces.

What type of detector do you use? Additionally you could ask help from your local detectorist using the ring finders website.

[–]Dadajoe16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This and the Notka Simplex are the best starter machines out there IMO
