Question
Upon my mother passing away 5 years ago I was left with a small black bag full of old coins that she has been saving for years.  I would like to know if any of them are of any value.  I will list them below:

2- Silver Certificates 1957  C68447668A & E59352501E

4- Silver dollars - 1878, 1880, 1892 & 1896

Silver 50 cent pieces - 1-1939, 1940, 1943, 1945, 1947, 1954, 1957, 1960. 4-1962. 13-1964

25 cent pieces - 1-1937, 1940, 1942, 1944, 1948, 1956. 2-1941, 1946, 1959, 1961, 1962. 4-1954. 6-1963. 30-1964

10 cent pieces - 103 various years

6 pennies - 2-1944. 1-1947,1955,1945, 1956

Susan B. Anthony (I believe) 6-1979

I know very little about coins, but none of them are new.  The above shows the number of each with a hyphen and then years of them.

Thank you for any help you can give me on this


Answer
Hi Susan

The Silver Certificates in used condition are worth $1.25 each

The silver dollars are common dates and worth about $13 each

The 50 Cent pieces are again, common dates, worth $5-$6 each

The 25 Cent pieces, common dates, worth $2.50- $3 each

The dimes are worth $1 - $1.20 each
and the cents and SBA dollars are worth face value
