Yesterday I was speaking with an elderly lady from our church who told me she has a collection of foreign coins, old coins and collector coins in plastic boxes and was wondering if they had any value. She's a widow with one daughter who is not interested in them, has no grandchildren and could really use the money.She would like to get an appraisal and sell them but has no idea where to start.There's a coin dealer nearby but he doesn't have a very good reputation. I suggested she ask at her bank, maybe they would know of someone. She's a lovely lady and I would like to help her. Any suggestions?

are there any local coin shows in your area?  Many dealers there often ask people if they have anything to sell. They are always looking for coins...fair price...dunno bout that

If you can find a dealer or 2 to get seperate appraisals & get a feel for who is being most fair on the collection

I got jars of foreign coins and most of them are not worth squat   but I like em

No, I just talked to her yesterday.  She really would like to take her collection to a reputable dealer who would give her a fair price.  The question is how do you find one?
