Hi All,

Just wanted to introduce myself.
I own a large coin collection of which I inherited from my grandfather 20 years ago, who had inherited it from his wife's father my great grandfather prior to that. This collection has been sitting in my families homes essentially untouched or reviewed for many decades.

Recently, I decided to take a look at the collection and start doing as much research as my time would allow and have discovered some very interesting coins. The Lincoln Cent collection I believe is particularly strong and includes nearly every year, mint mark, many of which appear to be uncirculated.

Also, another portion of the Lincoln Cent collection has been stored in a Whitman album and another in a Dansco album which I have been told is the reason many of the coins have become a rainbow toned look.

The collection in all is several hundreds of coins.
Both USA, Canada and World Coins. Over 10 countries, almost all of which are in individual sleeves or separate albums. So it is somewhat easy for me to navigate and take a photo when needed.

My goal is to be able to get my collection into the hands of passionate collectors who will truly appreciate them.

Respectfully,
Thank you,
Dave

You should keep them in the family for a few more generations and not sell them.

That would be nice but, do not show the whole collection in one post.
