co772 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 03/24/2014 11:30 am I recently inherited a coin collection that includes hundreds of Olympic coins. A lot of these are "off-the-shelf" U.S. and Canada sets that are pretty easy to value using ebay, etc. However, many of them are individual coins from countries around the world. Searching the archives of this forum, I haven't been able to locate any sort of price guide that includes Olympic coins from other countries. Where does the community suggest I begin the valuation and selling process? I'd prefer to do as much of my own pre-work as possible, before taking them to a coin dealer, coin show, or whatever the next steps may be. Lots of great info here. Thanks! co772 Report this Post to the Staff

co772 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 03/24/2014 1:26 pm Thanks for the excellent source! That's exactly what I was looking for. I've seen Olympic coins in this batch from 1972-1988 but there might be more. Report this Post to the Staff
