Welcome, and don't overlook errors and variations. I am a decimal coin person and don't know much about pre-decimal, but I am sure there are noteworthy errors to look for as well as general errors and variations that occur.

Essentially it could well depend on how valuable your portfolio turns out to be but it is possible that you may not need to have it valued by a dealer to have it insured (despite what your existing policy may say). It would be worth asking the question.


Exactly,if there is a large number of coins involved a pro. valuation from a dealer is big $,hundreds of $,even if you only get the $100+ coins valued and it takes the dealer over an hour your probaly (in my out of date opinion)up for $80-$100.
My Mother had her coin collection insured in the 1970/80's and all the Insurance Co. wanted was the approx. value(around $2000 at the time),no valuations or sightings but I guess if it was $20,000+ they would have different procedures in place,also it depends on whether your've had a previous claim or not I was told once.

Once you have some pictures, go to this forum:

and either choose a thread that already exists, or start a new thread, then other members can offer advice re grade and or value.

I have recently been looking into insurance for my collection. Anything under $2000 the insurance company will take my word, anything over that and they want a proffesional evaluation.
