Hi, Guys There Is Auction near me Sat. They have 7 silver dollars Unc. BU + Date are,1925,1921.1886,1922,1888,1923,1879. How Much they worth? They will auction them separately. Iam not a coin colector so I dont know. This is in West Mich.
Hello Digmaster, Thanks for posting the photo. The coins are what we call raw. They are not graded by a good third party grading company. The grade that is mentioned on the holders is nothing more than an opinion that any individual may want to assign to the coin. What I'm telling you is if the label says MS65 it really could be any grade and the seller is just labeled it to sell it for a profit. Get yourself a Red Book and read about silver dollars and check the prices of silver dollars on Ebay BEFORE you spend any money on coins. Those dates you have listed are all very available from hundreds of sources every day. You will find plenty more deals on all those dates every day after this 1 auction ends. Note that silver dollars can be purchased close to the price of silver (bullion value) in grades up to uncirculated condition. Some dates are rare & some high condition specimens are rare. Certainly some silver dollars are worth thousands of dollars. Until you learn about the coins, don't spend big money on them. Very best regards, collect89
1925,1921.1886,1922,1888,1923,1879. BTW, I personally own between 10 and 30 of each of those dates. My specimens are mostly About Uncirculated (AU) to Gem Brilliant Uncirculated (MS65). The majority of them probably cost me $14 to $20 each. I have a 1921 Morgan dollar that cost me $12. I have a 1921 Peace Dollar that cost me about $800. Unless you study the books & learn the coins, there is no way you will know what that 1921 in the auction is worth. Just hang back & see what they sell for at the auction. Report back with the prices realized at the auction.
If you're not a coin collector and don't know how to evaluate them for quality and value, you'd be much better off staying away from them. Chances are good that they will sell for more than they're worth, anyway.
1. Go to that auction and keep your hands in your pockets. 2. See how much they go for and then say WOW did I really save that much. 3. As noted purchase a Red Book and/or several other books on coins to get a little familiar with them 4. Almost any auction is fun to see if you can spot the ringers. Those are the ones hired by auction houses to raise the prices by bidding on almost everything. 5. In some areas there are coin shows. Best go to some and again, for a while keep your hands in your pockets.
they look shiny, silver prices are up.... I would pay 16-20 if they look good. (frosty backgrounds, breast feathers highly visible, etc.)
??????? Can anyone please tell me if I should invest in the new craze of "still sealed" 2009 Lincoln Chronicle Set. I am happy looking at mine, but want to know if I should invest in another for PCGS to certify/special label, if the rumor is even true????
I think you will find a large range of opinion on this. My opinion is these sets aren't worth investing in. The coins in them are very common and have been sold separate from the set. So, the only thing generating a premium for these sets right now is the holder they come in...not the coins themselves. Because of this, I expect the craze to die down and these sets to settle out a little above their original sale price (which I believe was $60). Now, a lot of people think the exact opposite. The truth with modern coins, there is no way to know which will be valuable and which won't. It's a true guessing game.
