I went up to the attic to find some of my old childhood coin collection.

I came out with:

1987 American Silver Eagle (Slightly Tarnished on Edges)
1884-O Uncirculated Morgan silver dollar
1895 Barber quarter
1943 Mercury dime
1893 Indian Head penny
1897 Indian Head penny
4x 1979 Susan B. Anthony Quarter
1980 Susan B. Anthony Quarter
5x 2000-P Sacagawea Gold Dollars
2x 1967 Washington quarters
1972-D Eisenhower dollar
1986 Kennedy half dollar
1972 Kennedy half dollar
1943-D Lincoln Wheat penny
1943-S Lincoln Wheat penny


Can someone give me a general price range for these?

the Barber quarter is worth between $10-30. we need pis to grade
the 43 merc is worth about $3
the 2 Indians depending on condition are worth about $2 each
the Susan b. Anthony DOLLARS are only worth face.
the Sacagawea dollars are worth face
the quarters are worth face
the Eisenhower dollar is worth face
both Kennedy halves are worth face
and the wheat pennies are worth about 10 cents each.

a set of morgans? Those are expensive. I cant find those for melt value. With Morgans there are more than the regular P,D,S mints. Morgans have P,D,S,O, and CC mints. The CC mints are usually more than $100 dollars each and thats only the semi-Key CC Morgans. Well if you are interested in a morgan set, then set aside a set amount of cash each month and when you see one that you want get it. I would love to start a Morgan collection but they are just not I'm my budget and I dont have a job.

friend that is what I would call seed coins. Many fun series there even your face value coins could grow into a set that IKE may be a 1.15 but your next ike..... there are some pretty ones
and your Carter quarters there is a variety that is worth a couple more than a dollar

Well, Coincollector I am just going to play things by ear and slowly collect sets after sets. The way I see it, I still have plenty of time to collect Kennedys but Morgan dollars are on the rise in value so if I want to do that, I need to get those as quick as I can. Kennedys can just be side work because I feel they will be relatively easier to get that set. I saw the entire set on ebay for about 200$ earlier.

yes I do agree that morgans are on the rise but so is inflation and silver price/oz. The market is always out there. The increase price of morgans is cause of the bad economy. The economy went down so people relied more on silver so the price/oz went up therefor increasing the value of all silver coins.

Really wish I could find some of my missing childhood collection. I had 2 large beer steins filled with silver quarters and I can only account for like 1/4 of it.

Luckily I never lost track of my collection when I started in 1978.
