1 - Take your coin to a local coin dealer (trustworthy ones can be found - shop around, get second opinions). It never hurts to get a second opinion. They will be able to tell you so much more by evaluation the condition of the coin. They will also know the amount minted and what it is going for in today's market. Many coin shops also do stamps.

2 - Try posting pictures on this website (there are many experts here that can help you evaluate it - there also may be people willing to buy if you are trying to sell your coins):

You need to see a stamp dealer or tow on the stamps and a coin dealer or two on the coins. I can't help with stamps but with coins you can be prepared by getting a Price guide magazine and look at the retails listed. If you are talking U.S. coins then a Coinage or Coins magazine will help. You won't get the prices listed, but it will clue you in to a rare coin if you have one. There are no free sites to help you. On a few coins with the date and denominations I can help but not on large lists for it is to time consuming. Hope this points you in the right direction.

Concerning stamps - you can try to contact a stamp dealer.

But it usually is not for free!
Standart fee for Expertizing $10-$20 per 1 item (if Current Catalogue value $1,000 or less or if item is not in catalogue). Or 2% of the current catalogue value (for stamps valuable than $1,000)...

So, I think it better to learn what you have before.
Most of stamps are worth 5 to 20 cents each. Even 100-year-old stamp could worth less than 1 dollar.

You need to get (buy) stamp catalogues and find your stamps there.
After this you can sort your stamps as a rare (which you suspect as a rare) and rubbish. (which definitely worth less than $1).
