Foreign Silver Coin Information Needed
 

I own a large collection of old foreign coins. Most of them are much older than 1960. Many of them appear to be silver. Can anyone tell give me the address of a good website that would picture such coins and give their silver percentage? I know what country most of the coins come from.

Thanks in advance for any information you can share with me.

you could always try posting some here.
if there are many coins - perhaps 10 at a time per photo.
you may entertain a few people on this site and at the same time get some answers to your questions ;)

otherwise I am not sure of a website, but when I have gone into a coin dealer with similar questions - they refer to some MASSIVE blue book. I'm not sure what its called I will try to find out - but every time I have taken some obscure coin to check up on - this local guy finds a match in the book. Obviously "book price" is open to arguement - but its a start.
