In Symbian MXT, the steps involved to view the saved waypoint coordinates are as follows:
Tools -> Manage My Data -> My Locations -> “Select saved waypoint” -> Change Location -> Edit Coordinates. :)

If you really have to, u can take the following steps:

1. Goto Setting. Turn ON GPS SIMULATION Mode.
2. Goto Favourite, Choose the point whr u wanna chk the Coordinate. Then tap View Map
3. After Viewmap with the position u'd like to find out the coordinate, tap 'Set Loc' at the bottom screen
4. Now, go back to navigation screen. You'll c your vehicle at the position u've set in step 3. (Now its still in simulation mode)
5. Tap on your vehicle and u'l c the coordinate now.

If you have alot of save favourite. What I do is to hook up the Nuvi to PC get the current.gpx file in the GPX folder and convert it to something readable with GPS Babel and do as you please.

I also usually convert it to google map or to POI files and load it to the Nuvi again.

If its only a few Fav then the steps listed by members earlier is a way to go.

For Nuvi with satellite icon
MainMenu - Select POI via Spell Name / Points of Interest / Address - Once located - Select it - Tap Map - Set Loc - Back to Main Menu - Tap on Satellite Icon on top Left Hand Screen - Your Location CoOrdinates is displayed on top of screen

For Nuvi without satellite icon,
