My grandfather is a coin collector. So I know a little about coins. However, the news station wants to do a follow up with us, and want us to have the coins "appraised". Not sure if we can trust anyone around here.

I am so glad that you found us. It would be awesome if when the reporter comes back for a "follow up" if you would mention our family of coin collectors, and how you can learn how to care for coins and learn more about what your coins are from our collective knowledge.
Your most valuable find is the youngsters that are actually a major part of the future of this hobby. I sure hope they try to learn a little bit more about their coins rather than how much they are worth to some dealer.
We have an awful lot of fun and camaraderie with each other on here and also make some very trustworthy friends over time that help each other to not get taken advantage of and how to properly preserve the pieces of history we acquire.
Best wishes on behalf of the coin community. We always are excited and especially helpful to newcomers to the hobby here.
I hope that the girls join as you have. We do have young numismatists here that continue to learn and contribute to the best coin forum on the Internet.
Unfortunately many stories are told here that do not have such a happy outcome.
