Wondering if there are some coin collectors on here. I have some gold coins that my wife inherited. 2 are 1986 eagle g $25 ms 69 and 4 1986 eagle g $10 ms 69. How would I go about selling these and what would I be looking at getting for them. Don't have to have the money but don't really have a need for the coins either.

Valued at $90? Look, I'm going to be honest with you. I have to turn a profit on these things, and they usually just sit here for years taking up display case room.








So I'll give you 34 cents for the lot.

you could surely sell them if you ran across the right collector, but it will be hit and miss selling them yourself. you could always sell them to a coin shop, but that is basically like selling to a pawn shop, as they will have to build in some profit.

ETA: if I am reading this right, it looks like the $10 are about $550 each and the $25 are about $1000 each...

Oh shite, that reminds me, I´ve got silver dollars.

What are they worth?

Since you don't need the money put them in your safe or SDB and let your grand-kids inherit them one day.

Ebay would be your best bet. Do not sell to a pawn shop.

Let me call my friend Ernie at the Coin Shop down the street. He can be over here in a couple of minutes.

Seriously, you have

2 ea. 1986 $25 US Gold Quarter Eagles graded MS 69
They are valued at $1,200.00 each ($ 2,400 Total)

4 ea. 1986 $10 US Gold graded MS 68
They are valued at $ 550.00 each ($ 2,200 Total)

Grand Total: $ 4,600.00

Soccerfüt, what are old silver dollars worth?

I´ve got eight or ten, of the above mentioned dates.

1905
That would be worth a fortune.

The US Mint did not produce a single 1905 Silver Dollar.

Also, your general question is like asking "I've got a car from 1970. What's it worth?"

So if I went to coin dealer what could I expect to get for them. I know they won't give me the prices quoted above.

They're all worth $10 each if they're not torn up. The condition and the date/mint mark combination determines what more they might be worth.

Odds are great they are all worth between $10-$20.

You'll get close to that price from a reputable coin dealer.

Two options, wait for a local coin show where the dealers come to you or any large city has a few coin dealers. What big city are you near?

I predict gold prices to fall in the next 59 years
I had a dream
Last month
A gold 500 ton meteor
Will impact earth
In the year 2053
Miners will get the gold
And gold will halve in value
Sell high
Sell now
The bottom drops
when the meteor does

Alexandria is closest "big" city. But I'm in Lafayette at least once a week.
