Question
I have inherited over 500 silver dimes and quarters. i would like to cash them in.
What's the best way to do this to get their true value.

Answer
Hello Richard,                      

Since silver is so high right now many dealers will buy them from you. They are offering from 11 times to 14 times the face value of the coin. That’s $1.10 to $1.40 for a silver dime, and if they are in collectable condition or rare dates like a 1932-D quarter it could be much more.
If you write back with the general location (nearest large cities) and telephone area code or codes and some zip codes in your area, I can direct you to an AMERICAN NUMISMATIC ASSOCIATION MEMBER/DEALER near there. They are ethical and trustworthy.
Or there is help with this at most coin shows if there is one in the area you can choose your own dealer.

Thank You and Good Luck
