<p>[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 4514552, member: 22377"]It can be difficult as many dealers have their own pricing. I've seen dealers offer very close to greysheet and others are quite a bit lower. It also depends on the material. Proof sets and mint sets (especially non-silver) are often well below greysheet among most dealers (since everyone has some and they don't move too quickly). On the other hand, junk silver/silver bullion/gold bullion has had a spike in demand recently and the premiums on it are higher than average.</p><p><br /></p><p>Greysheet can be a good start (note: you can register for a free Heritage account and find greysheet numbers there if you look up each specific coin). Recent eBay sales are another good resource to have an idea of going rates (and if the dealer's offer is well below that number, selling on eBay might end up being the better option...although don't forget about the 10% non-store fee and the 2.9% from PayPal).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
