Answer 2

Different types of coins are graded differently due to their design and what features in that design wear out the fastest. There is no site that can really help here, for it would have to have a large data base. Also most sites and magazines have retail prices, not what a dealer would pay. I wish you had listed the dates and mint marks, then I could have walked you through some of the silver dollar grading and values. The mint marks if any on the Morgan dollars is on the eagle side below the wreath near the bottom. On the Peace dollar it is on the eagle side below the word one. You can also see a coin dealer in your area.

Answer 3

Another option for getting a good idea of the grade of a coin is to go to a library and see if they have a copy of the "Red Book". In it is grading guides by coin type.

Note that coin price magazines list an average retail price for coins not a wholesale price. In other words dealers are only going to offer 50% to 60% of the price listed in the magazines. You might get a better price from a collector.

Answer 4

Condition is a key factor....If they're really worn they're probably not worth much as there's still a zillion of them out there. I'd suggest going to a magazine store and look in a coin collecting magazine.
