Scoring Big on Coins

My mother-in-law left a lot of coins behind, and in going through them, of course we hoped for that big cash find, but no. However, in all the investigation, I learned a lot about coin values, and the many different kinds of coins there are. I find special creations such as silver rounds particularly interesting. That's not something you're just going to find on the street or get back when you get change. We had a lot of silver dollars. Old ones too, but unfortunately, it seems there are particular years that are really worth something. We did have a few that were worth a few dollars more than face value, but the highest valued silver dollar was a few at $5.00. Still not bad, but not the big score you would like to find in a pile of old coins.
