Without going into the details, someone who doesn't know much about coins has some Kennedy silver halves to sell and was asking me how much they are worth. I haven't been buying silver lately so I am not sure where the current values stand. Acknowledging that silver changes in value each day, what approximately is the current multiplier most dealers are using to buy 90 percent silver? And what would be the multiplier for the 40 percent halves? I feel like at the peak of silver's value halves were worth about $12, but I don't really know what it's at now. To be safe I said don't take under $7 for the 90 percenters, but I figure it's probably higher than that.
that's the price guide from the RedBook, extended to $50... sell price. I used it myself today when I sold some silver. (Silver closed $.50 less today than when I sold it )
This can give you an idea of current buy and sell prices (although these prices are for a minimum of $100 face) http://www.mjpm.com/silver.cfm
