char1980 New Member Canada 4 Posts	Posted 03/24/2016 01:56 am Hello all, I have found a coin in my late mother's little collection. It is a 1913 25 cent coin. There is a bit of wear and tear on the coin. Any tips on how to learn if there's any value to the coin? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you! * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

AgCoinAu Pillar of the Community Canada 3049 Posts	Posted 03/24/2016 4:30 pm The "blue" book reference for Canadian coins is either by the coinsandcanada web site or the "trends" which is published in a canadian numismatic newpaper... I agree with the grade of fine - details - rim damage... as for what it's worth... john is right melt value unless you find someone who really wants it... Report this Post to the Staff
Cliffracer New Member Canada 24 Posts	Posted 04/02/2016 09:49 am $Add Cliffracer to your friends list$ Bullion value as mentionned above, but remember, a coin is always worth what someone is willing to pay for it. So if its the last coin needed to complete an album or if a collector isn't particularly bothered by rim damage, it could be worth a premium for the right buyer. Report this Post to the Staff
