10+ years ago I came into a number of coins that are silver and now I'm trying to figure out what they are worth. I have about 120 silver Roosevelt dimes, about 40 Mercury dimes, 13 standing liberty half dollars, 20 Franklin half dollars, 3 Kennedy half dollars, 30 Washington quarters and 3 walking liberty quarters. I am trying to figure out how to grade them and if there are any rare ones I should be looking for. Any help would be great and can post pics if any are needed. Truth be told I am getting married and I am thinking about trying to sell most or all of them. Thank you in advance for your advice and help |

 For starters, obtain a Red Book, the official guide to US coins. You can get it at a Barns and Nobles or online. Usually about $17. It gives everything you are looking for right now except realistic values, which in the Red Book tend to be a little high. Check ebay for realistic values other than silver melt value. But it will give you info on any rare coins or ones worth more than silver melt value. Since you only have 3 "walking liberty" (its actually standing, just so you know) quarters, why dont you post them all and we can tell you what they are worth. Any questions just ask. |

The first one looks like EF, worth maybe $15-20. The other two are G-VG, and not worth much more than melt, which is about $7 right now.

That '29d is very nice, it may be original (have original surfaces) and worth more than stated.
Clearer images of the head and foot would be necessary.
Oh and your nickels aren't silver.
