with a good description or pictures, I should be able to identify and value
any U.S. coin you have.

I have a Silver and Gold coin set called "Twelve Great Americans" from the Letcher Mint in a key locked case. The coins are 24grams of .999 pure silver with a gold head that is 5 grams of 24 Karat Gold. Other than gold and silver market prices, I can't find any information on the set itself. Wher can I find information on this set and possibly what the set is workt?
Answer Dave,
The Letcher Mint -- a private company -- was only in business for 2 years back in the 1970's. I doubt you will find any information anywhere about this set.
Being privately minted -- like similar items from Franklin Mint, Washington Mint, Kennedy Mint (all private companies) -- it's next to impossible to find a collector that will pay any more than the metal value of these items -- even with the pretty box.
