Are These Worth Anything?

As Finn235 mentioned, these all appear to be genuine gold issues. At the very least they will be worth gold spot value plus numismatic value which should add up to several thousand dollars. The 3 dollar gold piece, even though it is a common date, is still worth several times gold value only.

Usually the first thing I would suggest to a non-collector that has gold coins such as those you present would be to have them authenticated and graded by an independent company (what we call TPG's = Third Party Graders). But none of your coins give even a hint of falsity, so I don't think spending the money to have them authenticated would be necessary.

Since you live in LA, if you are looking to sell these, there are a number of reputable coin dealers who would probably make you a fair offer. I would suggest getting at least 2 and preferably 3 offers before selling.

If you are not interested in selling and would like to keep these as remembrances of your grandfather I applaud you and perhaps you might even decide to add to your collection as you are able.

In any event, when we see a question like yours, we usually don't see great coins. You have great coins.

Where are the CCF manners?
Ltglawa, to CCF.
As the members pointed out you have a nice collection of gold coins.
You need to verify each coin at a local coin store that deals in coins.
Not a "We buy Gold" place but a coin store that has been around for a number of years.
With this post some CCF members can help you out for a good store in your area.

Hi, Itgiawa, and

You could sell them on ebay, but if you decide to do that, you should follow moxking's advice and have them graded/authenticated by a service such as PCGS, ANACS, NGC, or ICG. While you can sell ungraded (what the business calls "raw") coins on ebay, you would not get as much as you would if they were graded. And ebay only allows the grades and photos of the "slabs" (plastic holders) from these four services to be included in their listings.

A local coin store would probably pay about the same amount for ungraded coins as they would graded coins, so you would not necessarily need to have them graded. Also, you would get cash on the spot, if you need to sell them fast. BUT - dealers will only pay up to a wholesale price, since they will in turn need to make a profit when they resell them. You might hear this referred to as the "gray sheet bid price" or simply "bid." ebay buyers, on the other hand, generally want them for their collections, so they will pay closer to market price (or "ask") than a dealer would.

So it basically depends on how quickly you want to sell them vs. how much you want to get for them. Fast = local coin store (called "LCS" here). More money = ebay (after having them graded)

That's a nice pile of gold. Gold is a bit depressed right now, so unless you could use the cash now, you may want to hang on to them.

Those are nice gold coins you have there!

Nice coins! Unless you are in desperation mode for cash you should hang on to them....just like your grandfather did!

(I define "desperation" as avoiding foreclosure, avoiding repossession or extreme medical necessity! Desperation is not new bling, a new cell phone, trip to Europe or a new car!)

Those are some keepers!! If at all possible. Plus do not try to "clean" them to try and make them look better. And please don't touch the surfaces only handle by the edges.
As have others have stated I would seek out someone to help you get them to PCGS or NGC this to also protect the coins.
