How do people value coins they find in old jars?

I found an old coffee jar full of coins from the 1960s and 70s in the basement. Most look ordinary, but I’d like to know if any have extra value before I spend them.

Old jars often contain a mix of common and slightly better dates. Taking photos of both sides and using a recognition tool is the quickest way to separate the wheat from the chaff. The app shows possible values depending on condition and helps you decide what to keep or sell. It’s not perfect for every error coin, but it catches most things worth noticing. Many collectors start with a good coin value checker – it helped me go through a similar jar last month and I actually found a few coins worth more than face value.
