Certainly! To find out if you have any debts in collections, you can review your credit reports. The simplest way is to check your credit reports from the three major credit bureaus: Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax. These reports help you see which of your debts are in the hands of debt collectors. Keep in mind that some collection agencies might not report activity to any of the credit bureaus, so checking all three reports ensures you don’t miss anything¹.

As for old rare coins collections, they can be quite valuable. Some of the most valuable and rare coins come from the United States. Here are a few examples:

1. 1933 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle: Only one of these coins is legal to own privately.
