The best resource to check is either PCGS.com or NGCcoin.com. These are the industry standard for grading and authenticating rare coins and by far the best resource on determining the price of your coins.
When you go to sell coins for cash and you are researching rare coins for their value one thing to note is that most coins that have an extremely high value are “graded” coins. This means they were sent to PCGS or NGC and are encased in a hard clear plastic case and have the information about the coin as well as a grade like MS69. This removes all doubt about the authenticity of the coin as well as the condition of the coin. This makes it much easier for Coin Dealers to make a proper offer when you come in to sell your coins for cash. The picture on the left shows a coin that has been graded buy PCGS. As you can see in the image, in the top left corner is the mint year and mint mark on the top left is the denomination of the coin. In the middle it shows the grading company and the coin grade “AU58” which means “almost uncirculated”. The higher the number in the grade the better quality the coin. For instance if your have a MS70 grade on the coin that means it is “Mint State” and 70 means the coin is perfect. The grades can get a bit confusing to a non-collector but once you learn them it makes it a priceless tool for buying and selling coins.
