Hello everyone,

There is a long story behind this question but the TL;DR is that a coin collection was left by a relative who passed. That coin collection went to his sister, my grandmother. She is trying to determine the worth of the coins, with no intention of selling as of now. However, we have no idea where to go. We went to a pawn shop and they quoted us for one coin at $5. We were wondering if anyone had suggestions for where to go to get an honest appraisal. If the coins really are worth $5 each, that's fine, just don't quite understand why the relative had the coins hidden away if they weren't worth much. TIA for any help offered.
