i have several coins that I do not know the value of at all, not even a clue. I can describe them to anyone who is willing to listen because I'm looking to sell them if they are worth anything. I have a 1944 Walking Liberty half dollar, a 1958 and 1962 ben Franklin half, and a dime from 1944 that I know nothing about. I would appreciate the help!

jad9170 to the forum,Right now you could get about ten times face value because they are made of silver,but wait,we need to know what condition they are in,can you post photos?The higher the condition the more they would be worth and if they are errors or varieties they would have a premium.Hope this helps.

Well, set it to manual focus and play around with the focus to make it clearer. Hope that helps! Or, use macro mode (the one with the flower) and let the camera do its job.

Welcome to the forum!

The coins you describe are common date 90% silver coins, which commonly sell for 10 times face value. If they are "Mint State" (having absolutely no signs of wear), they are worth a noticeable premium over silver value. If they have very minor wear, they will likely have a sight premium over silver value. Most coins of those dates existing today are just worth silver value.
