Got a goodie bag from the mom in law
My wife dad passed away a few months back. Was visiting the mil last night and she hands me a bag full of coins. She was asking my opinion on what to do with the coinage. After sorting all the coins out she had 6 pre 1921 morgan dollars (none with the cc mint mark)....22x 1971-1978 Eisenhower silver dollar (reg. circulated non silver content ones)....and 99x 1979 susan b anthony dollars. I did my search on the net and got a ball park price on the value of the coins. She calls this morning and informs me that she was just going to trade the coins in to the bank for face value. And says that she had decided to just give me the lot. My question is.....if you was in my shoes, what would you do with the non-silver coins. I do have a stash of "junk silver" so the 6 silver coins are a no brainer....What perplexes me is the other non silver dollars and the susan b anthony coins. A part of me thinks I may need to keep them for barter items at a later date, however another part of me says I should just exchange them at face value for silver junk coins.....thoughts??? ideas???
