    My parents have a collection of 'ancient' coins. I haven't looked at them in ages so I don't know what they are, I'm not looking to sell them but is there a service in Sydney that can value them?

    It's always worth getting a second opinion.

    I'd also get an appraisal from Jaggards or Downies.

    Do you have a list of all the names of the rulers on the coins?

    With the list, and photos of the coins ( to ascertain the grade & condition of the coins ) no one will be able to help you much.

    Are they bronze, silver or gold.

    Site below may be of help.

    I don't know what there is, I'm probably better off just takin them all to one of the above dealers and seeing what they think.

    I'll revive this thread if/when I find out more info

    Thanks!
