Silver - gauging interest

I was recently given a bunch of whitmans that were found in a box picked up at a yardsale. Among them were Ikes (i'll keep since they are my primary coin of choice) and some silver whitman albums.
Not sure if I'd be interested in selling them or not. I know silver isn't too high right now, although it isn't at a bad spot.
Really trying to figure out if I'd be able to get above melt for the lot. I know the silver quarters there isn't anything special, or the silver rosies, as all of them are common dates (even though some are pretty old and the dates and mint marks are all visable), but there are some semi-key mercs like the 1921. Really the the first page (1916-1925) of the album is almost complete sans the 1916-D and 1921-D.
In total I think there are 12 silver quarters, and 57 silver dimes.
What do you guys think?

I think I would like to see those Mercurys

 

Silver is 3x more than it was 4-1/2 years ago, so if looking at those tiny dimes gives you headaches, sell them!

This seems a simple thing to me; pull out anything you want to keep or think you can sell at a higher value and junk the rest.

 

You're looking at melt except for the semi-key dates.

 

Keep them or trade up for new silver or a coin you have had on your coin want list.

 

I would expect spot - eBays 12% or whatever they charge you.

 

I'd hang on to it. Silver is more likely to go up than down anymore.

 

This could definitely be debated. But I do not wish to hijack this thread on silver predictions.
