Today I was cleaning out a house out and in the attic I found a box of old coins. :headbang: I almost sh!t my self when I looked in the box and saw gold. I have found coins and jewelry before but nothing gets your heart pumping like gold coins!!! Its about half us and foreign. Wheat pennys, 3 indian heads, silver 1899 two shilling, gold 1913 2 1/2 dollar and a 1902 5 dollar gold. Can you tell me the value of the gold ones? Would of like to of found them with my metal detector, but still a great find!!

I'm think I should get these graded. They look like almost uncirculated. Were would be the best place to send them to get graded?

Banner as well
 
Redbook: about $200 for the quarter eagle & about $300 for the half eagle.
 
It's interesting the way the two gold coins have a different tint .
I guess they came from two different gold deposits?

I gave them a cheep price in exchange that I keep any thing I find or want to keep, sell ect. They went threw the house and took what they wanted. I returned family photos, GF dog tags. They are mine end of story.
Right on!!
 
You are a lucky dog. Banner for sure.
