Well, I will see my cousin at Christmas dinner today. I asked her just to bring a sampling of her items just to see what is in the mix. I may post some pics for advice.
Thank you to all,
apush

Looking forward to seeing front and back images of each sample.
No doubt there are many on this tread who will give you their 'two cents' as to condition and value--before you go to a dealer.
Merry Christmas,
Don...

So what did she bring you? My step mother let me look at her fathers coin collection the day after xmas. I was saddened to see that it was 99% clad half dollars. It did have a nice 1921 Morgan dollar and a 1937 Walking Liberty half. Plus some random bills from Germany I have no clue what they are or worth.

A similar thing happened to me. My mother in law called and said that she had found my wife's "silver dollar" collection. Each year my wife's uncle would give her one for Christmas. I could barely contain my excitement. That is... until we got there and they were all clad Eisenhowers. They are still worth a little more than face value but not much.
