Inherited attic find -nice box of coins!

[nhbenz]

Back to rummaging through my grammys old stuff from the attic... but I'll be out detecting soon now that spring is here. I'm not much of a coin guy yet, but I'm learning... and these should help: 1916-1947 liberty halves, 1878-1934 silver dollars, 15-cent bill, 1859 gold dollar, bunch of liberty pennies?, 1920 pilgrim half, 1925 patriot half, 1893 Columbus halves... this is about one quarter of the contents... I'll post more as time allows. There are some really old ones too (as far as US coins go)... they're quite worn and didn't photograph well. 1783? Auctori Connec, 1796 large cent, and more.

Ben,

I'm sorry for the loss of your grandmother.
I'll wager SHE was the real treasure
