Does anyone know anything about old coins??? Where would I take old coins to have them apprasied and how do I know they are not screwing me? ANYONE!!!!

World Peace Through Law (issue # 20) 14. In Comm of the U.S. Postal Serve Bicentennial (with stamps) issue # 19
I am also going to check the website Cheryl gave. Thanks
I have checked on some sites, and it looks as though your best bet would be to sell them as a "lot" as opposed to one by one. If you them up on EBAY you can get a general idea of what something like that is going for. Of course EBAY is a total crap shoot, it all depends on if someone out there wants them and happens to be online during your 7 day auction. If they are Silver, then they will do better alone. If you want to mail them to me I will do more research when I get back from my cruise. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
For me, "coins" meant minted by the US Government. I have learned something from this. While at a flea market the other day I actually looked at some coins on display, surprise, they had some that were not minted by the US Mint.

Are you going to drop the other shoe on this topic and let us in on what eventually came of all this?
