Good news/bad news – there’s an inherent limit on silver, coin collections, jewelry, etc. Usually coin collections are limited to $200 (varies by policy). Some of your coinage, particularly the 1/2 cent and 3 cent, might be worth nothing at all – or it could be foreign currency, who knows.
Silver jewelry boxes can be purchased on Ebay for under $100.
You’re just going to have to compile your list as best you can, and browse ebay completed sales for pricing.
Don’t worry about John’s answer, he’s wrong. The adjuster will likely ask you if you have any receipts, for the more recently purchased items. Most of the time if you can come up with photos/receipts for 30% of the items, the adjuster can work with that. No one keeps every receipt they ever get. It just doesn’t work that way in the real world.
Also, you should be talking to YOUR AGENT to help you out with this stuff.

Here's my opinion: artistic talent is largely learned. Most of the so-called experts will argue this statement, of course. They’ll proclaim that artistic oil painting techniques are only in the grasp of those rare individuals that are born with a mysteriously God-like ability to create art. Being lowly mortals, we should never even try to understand art let alone try to create it. Give me a break! Click here For the rest of the story: Free Painting Lesson
