Question
I would like to know the value of:  
The Legendary Aircraft of World War II $50.00 Silver Proof Coin collection.  Yr.  1991: Diameter: 38.61mm (crown size): Edge:  Reeded  Weight: 1 Troy ounce (31.11 grams). Metal:  .999 pure silver. Minting:  Proof. Authority:  The Republic of Marshall Islands. 24 coins with certificate of authenticity.

The Milestones of Space Exploration $50.00 Silver Proof Coin collection. 24 coins issued in 1989 by the Republic of the Marshall Islands.

History's Greatest Fighting Ships $50.00 Silver Proof Coin Collection.  12 coins issued in 1998

Look forward to hearing from you,

Answer
Sara,

It will be very difficult to find anyone willing to pay more than the silver melt value for these sets.  So add up the total weight in Troy ounces (looks like 60 ounces), and multiply by the current spot silver price of silver -- this will give you approximate value.

Spot prices can be found on http://www.kitco.com

I hope this helps,

Dan

Expertise

My strong familiarity with all U.S. Mint coins, extensive reference library, and close relationships with many other dealers allows me to identify just about any coin made in the USA. I receive regular updates to all the current price guides -- both wholesale & retail -- to provide accurate values. So, with a good description or pictures, I should be able to identify and value any U.S. coin you have.

Experience

I've been a coin dealer since the 1980's and a coin collector since the 1960's. I specialize in U.S. Silver Coins and have an active online website -- The Working Man's Rare Coins -- http://www.workingmancoins.com -- offering information and inventory in U.S. coins.
