    Your best bet would be to take your coin to a local coin dealer. They will be able to tell you so much more by evaluation the condition of the coin. They will also know the amount minted and what it is going for in today's market.

    Try posting pictures on this website (there are many coin experts here that can help you evaluate it - there also may be people willing to buy if you are trying to sell):

    As was stated already take them to your local coin dealer, banks have no idea what collector coins are worth. It is not their job to know unless A person working there is a collector. I have found over the years, few that work in banks collect coins. It is a strange coincidence but, I just bought some New Brunswick cents from a dealer here in New Hampshire they were in his, what is called junk box.I got a great deal on them. Maybe there is a coin club in your area, they would help.

    If you have only a few coins and want to sell them individually, e-bay is probably the very best way to do it. If you did it through a shop... well, first you'd have to FIND one. Then they'd take a cut, if the coins aren't extremely valuable it probably wouldn't be worth it.

    I would take them to a reliable coin dealer for an appraisal. After that, depending upon the outcome, I would suggest you seek out advice on what to do next from your parents, if you are young.

    The bank won't pay you for it. You'll have to go to a collector stop, or ebay it. Good luck.
