Thanks for your interest. Images can be only 300kb aparently (low quality) so I created a Google drive with some pictures on full size. Here is the Link to some of the coins if you find it interesting I could take the time to photograph them all.

Have you tried the Pixlr Image Optimizers?

Pixlr Desktop Image Optimizer (Tutorial) - Pixlr Mobile Image Optimizer (Tutorial)

You can get a lot of image in under 300kb (click on image to view full size in a new tab)...

That looks like a fun collection to go through! My love for coin collecting started with my grandfathers collection. Nothing of real value but it sure was fun to go through, share on this forum, and learn.

I like your Barber quarters. That whole quarters binder is great! May not be museum quality stuff but a nice chunk of silver for sure! Hope you have some fun with it!

Very nice selection from your Grand-Father...
Take a peek at that 1938 Walking Liberty Head Half Dollar...if there is a "D" on the reverse (back) that a semi-key date.
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks, I will try to make a digital catalogue, there are a few hundred pounds of coins from all over the world, its gonna take me some months. But from the US there are not so many of them. Here are some old quarters and dimes.

Looking at the Barber quarters (don't see dimes) check the 1897 mint mark. The 'o' has some value. So does a 1904 s. Most of them look to be in above average condition too. I don't know much about the Seated Liberty quarters. Dont see much value wise In the Kennedys but both those series I don't have much knowledge in.

Hi thanks for your comment no markings found in the 1897 and 1904 barbers.

That's a bummer. Still the 1900's ones look to be in fine or very fine condition which is better than average. You could post up close front and back photos outside the holder on the grading forum here to see what everyone thinks. Each step up in grade has a decent jump in price. Don't think there will be a massive payday but definitely collectible.

This is my go to price list for raw/uncertified coins.

Thanks, yes I will work on a Full Digital Catalogue, he was more interested in asia and europe regarding to coins. At his last years he suffered some economical problems and sold the most valuabel peaces I belive, I was 14... he died when I was 17, am 34 now. So yes that is sad, but I will create a full HD catalogue of all the countries and coins to show them.

Welcome to CC!

I recommend you DO NOT donate your inherited coins. My Aunt made this mistake with my deceased Uncle's collection and I went nuts when I found out. You're better off passing it to someone else in your family or selling the coins outright.....all this assuming you have no interest in starting to collect. This is an opportunity to start your own collection - that's what I'd do personally. GOOD LUCK!
