  1. I obtained a 10 lb original lead sealed bag of coins from the Binion Horde.

    I wondered if anyone had a good procedural recommendation other than my initial thought of immediately opening the bag and releasing the mystery.

    While that sounds fun I know it might be rather foolish to do that.   I know because I did it with Collector F1 cars, guns and crazy stuff back in the CEO days when I had it rolling hard.

    Now I am more prudent ( cars all gone and no more shooting 1 of 100 guns for fum:()  It IS fun  but t IS stupid too.

     

    Any sage advice - I thank you kindly in advance for the insight.  I HAVE to open them, that's just me.  But how do I do that right?

     

    Would I just have them authenticated and graded? 

    I've gotten great help here as I learn and I'm sincerely hoping for more.

     

     

     

  2. Thank you very much. I can appreciate that. And it gives me good perspective. 

    I certainly appreciate not wasting anyone's.

    I know there are a lot of highly collectable coins.

    I was interested in the grade because i have a multiplier.  I have around 200 coins that are a 10+% +/- that sondition in wheat and 400ish not wheat for the same years. 

    I was wondering if that mattered. 

    I also have 60lbs of foreign coins including Annam from the 1780's.

  3. Ok

    20 is more like 200+ and there is a roll of 1957's from Mellon Bank and Trust Pittsburgh looking very good. There are a similar number of coins that don't have the luster of the first I posted. 

    I just don't know what the normal is yet. I will get a couple grades to see. 

    If anyone can help me with a little advice I thank you in advance. 

    I assume the roll is like unopened Chrome Cards. You trade the unknown value away on opening  - so you have to make a nice find to recover?  Or ?

     

  4. I have over 20 1954 and 56 S,D &P Pennies 

    They were owned by a dealer and now I have them  

    I've read a bunch and am looking at the extra fine coins. I think mine are very good and they are quite nice. I joined for grading them but I wanted reality check first. Can anyone help me with this and a little advice please.  Locally I'm stumped for help. 

    Thanks

    Kevin
