Sounds like a fantastic start to a great collection! Good luck!

LeAnn: Is there an 1877 U.S. Indian Head cent in that collection?

(I heard that snicker from you penny collectors out there)

Bummer! Have you looked for any "key" or "semi" key dates on any of the denominations yet?

Here's a list of "Key" and "Semi" key dates that I use for a quick, down and dirty, reference guide. These are only for mid to late 19th Century and 20th Century. Hopefully I didn't miss any. I'm not assuming that you don't have a list such as this. I'm only making it available if you don't or others might not have it as well. I hope that you continue to have fun preparing the wonderful coins for your daughter.

Thank you, I've never seen a list before. This gives me a better idea of what I should look for when I move them to new books(when I get them). This forum and the people here are great. THANK YOU!

I won't be doing any cleaning till I show them to an expert. I know there is a coin dealer about 15/20 miles away. But his hours don't work too well with my work schedule. Some day.

LeAnn, do you happen to live in the metro east area of Ilinois?

If you are not too far from St. Louis, I can recommend my neighborhood coin shop to you for an expert opinion (only shop still located in St. Louis city). Their hours are 10am-7pm Monday, 10am-5pm Tues-Friday and 10am-3pm on Saturday. Just email me if you are interested.
