My collection-
flying eagle (copper nickel)- 1857
Indian head (copper nickel)- 1859, 1860, 1862, 1863, 1864
Indian head (bronze)- 1865, 1872, 1874, 1878, 1880, 1881, 1882, 1883, 1885, 1886, 1887.
They are all in good condition expect few are slightly worn. What are the values of there and what could I get all together for the whole collection?

Hello, Cannedus, Welcome to the Forum..
For us to give you a value of your collection, we would have to see pics.
Prices range quite a bit different, when the grades go up or down.

With out the pictures its difficult to be accurate. But a rough estimate would be about $240. This would increase if any of these coins were better than good. The key to your set is the 1872. In G4 I would say it is worth about $90.

The way I took this statement, I thought the coins that were worn were probably AG3 and the others were probably G4 to VG8.

 to the forum! If you are unable to take pics and post them here for us to evaluate, here is a couple of links that might help you do the research on your own. Here's a site to help with the grading: http://www.pcgs.com/photograde/Here's a site that can help to at least give you a rough idea of value once you have an idea of grade: http://www.numismedia.com/fmv/fmv.shtml |

Strange collection, a bunch of tough and semi key dates. Where are the commons? That's usually all you get in my sets  |

Your best bet is to invest in a book on coins such as the Red Book by whitman publishing. In such a book you could see what is ment by G4, VG8 etc for grading of coins. Also, a sort of value but usually on the high side and not what you could get for your coins but what you would pay for them if you bought them. Also, there are a lot of price guides on line but again, those too are mostly what you would pay for them. |
