you need to do the 'ol boy SOLID
get the more vaued ones graded and slabed(sent away pcgs)
then sell them and give him all the dough
then you 3 sit around and make a pizza

Battlecat, after you catch your breath and start thinking of selling the coins I would recommend ebay. Now as to how to divide up the lots I'm not too sure. And of coarse don't forget to keep a few for yourself.

I'm glad you are looking after your grandfather. Your kindness will come back to you someday.

Curious as to the Indian Heads - probably mostly late 1800's and a lot of the 1907,1905, etc. Any good IH dates? Nice 1860's and 1870's IH's go for some good $$$$.

Don't discount the clad as just clad, without looking them over first.
This man knew what he was doing. So some of it could be mint errors or certain variaties and so on. Even clad has it's rare coins. HH

Yikes! I'm gonna be dreaming about those boxes and their contents for the next few weeks. I'm absolutely not complaining, I'm just wishing I had the opportunity to run my fingers through some cache like that. Holy crap, that is some kinda great coinage and currency. The stuff of which dreams are made (and seldom realized).

Girlfriend's grandpa should be even more appreciated now, and for the remainder of his long and healthy life, for his foresight and generosity. The man is my newest hero!!! Ah, the elderly, truly our "treasure" and the one most often overlooked. Ask grandpa if he remembers the locations of any outdoor dance floors or picnic grounds or ballfields or any other place people may have lost coins long ago. Then do your research. I'm telling you, grandpa may be a true "gold mine" of information. Give it a try, it probably can't hurt him or you and gf.

I believe a 1921 high relief peace... maybe someone can help me out on this one

Looks like it.

That list is stunning! Wow

Best of luck with that. If you need someone to sell stuff to, let me know. I know some people who would be interested, and would pay fair prices for whatever you got.

Oh, and don't open anymore uncirc rolls!!

 

[Salvager]

BRILLIANT!!!!

What really stands out here is your honesty. I'd take you as a grandson any day!!!
Its good to hear of true thoughtfulness these days.

Keep up the good work.

[kalpinro]

Feel that? That is my drool hitting the screen! Speechless! Thanks for the picks they are great to see!!!

 

[battlecat]

Thanks guys I will be searching the clad also.. There is also 150 more rolls of wheats to search, thats a totol of over 270 rolls of wheats.
I found a little box last night that had 4 1909 wheats two of them with vdb but no s mint mark. also the mercs are all sorted 6 1916 but none with a d ledgable.. All worn around the edeges so if one was a d we will never know

 

[rvbvetter]

I'm really, really stoked about this for you guys.
Now about these adoption papers I have here for your family to sign........ HH

I have just started setting up auctions in turbo list and will be uploading them to ebay later today.
I will provide a link in the sale section here for everyone. Dont worry I pulled some for Leigh and I,(Grandpas Wishes), and also spoke to him last night about selling some of it.. He still insists he would be happy with face value, and I still refuse to give only face value.. Boy we are almost identical. We are both Stuborn as heck
as is Leigh Annes father... No wonder she loves me, Im just like the two most important men in her life!
I know a few of you are not happy that im selling this stuff, But the man had 30k in the bank a few years ago and family members have taken advantage of him and left him with less then 2k, And if you saw the look on his face when we brought over the 501.00 from the first batch of clad ( yes we searched through it first) Then most of you would do the same
Thanks for sharing the first night of this find with me. All of those that were on saw it as I did.. I would take out 2 or three items and post a few photos and read the great comments, then go back and take 3 more photos and so on. It was like you guys were here with me, opening everything while I was. It was great and lots of fun!!
