My LCS near me sells 90% silver halves, dimes, and quarters at a 25:1 ratio (barber-kennedy, barber-roosevelt, SLQ-Washington). Is this a good deal? Should I wipe them clean, or should I just get the barbers, or should I just get certain years? Any input is appreciated. Thanks in advance!
I just got a bunch for 21.75 x face value. I think 25 is a pretty typical price. That would mean half dollars at $12.50. Not bad at all.
i personally am used to buying 90% at whatever melt is at the time which is why i buy it over pure. i hate premiums. some dealers do charge premiums for barber stuff though
I would do it, my coin shop is located in southern california, so whenever I buy something I get the honor of paying an extra 8.75% tax. Feels so nice spending uneccessary money.
