PCGS price guide is $1,600, though that's not the end-all, be-all. Suggest checking out auction results at Heritage Auctions. Notice that it has been in someone's registry set.
If those are spots on the face, pass. There are many of these out there, PCGS guide is high. Dealers don't trade these anywhere near greysheet, let alone price guide.
Pcgs has this one listed at 4 grand it has cac sticker to, What do you guys think of this one. It's listed at Bin for 1500 or make offer.
He only has 2 people watching it. I would pass unless you absolutely LOVE the coin and can't find another one like it or close to it. I would e-mail him back and make a decent but low-ball offer....that way he knows you are interested. He may contact you again to let you buy direct or once he re-lists for a lower price he may be more flexible with your Best Offer. Keep us posted on this or similar coins. And if someone else does buy it for his price -- personally, I doubt it -- sometimes you have to let a coin go. The market for folks paying over $1,000 for an MSD is much smaller than those looking at an overpriced one at $300. You would expect the former to be much savier, like our resident Morgan experts. So unlike an overpriced cheaper coin, this guy may not get bailed out by the One Dumb Buyer Theory. I saw this coin too but wasn't going to make an offer since it's a bit too pricey for me. If I thought the seller MIGHT go down to $700-$800 I might have considered it. FWIW, if I ever find a coin on Ebay because someone here mentions it I'll always let you guys/gals know I bid as a courtesy.
Ok I haven't pulled the trigger on any of the aforementioned MD that I posted pics of so far, I love the Dmpl especially the Carson Cities
I don't know what the price is on that one (you'll have to figure out if it is a good value or not). But, from the pictures posted, that appears to be an attractive coin.
Looking at recent auction results, I think the seller would tell you to take a $700 to $800 offer and go jump in the river. If the OP is going to make a lowball offer it had better have four figures in it.
I would make an offer for $850 - $900. Assuming rejected, I would come back with $1,100 or thereabouts. At that price you have really closed the gap alot and if the guy is serious he will counter-offer. If he doesn't, you know he wants $1,229 hard(how'd he pick that figure ? ) and you either pay it or look elsewhere.
The auction results I saw over the past year or so (mostly at Heritage) ranged from about $940 to just over $1100. Most were in the $1,000 to $1,100 range. David Lawrence sold one at auction for $1,250.
OK....silver is a bit lower today but obviously that's only a marginal factor since this isn't a bullion coin. But lower silver prices means lower demand for anything silver so a slight weakening of the auction results should be expected. I think in that case my 2nd bid of $1,100 is in the ballpark.
