Coworkers gave me all this for my bday today and they wont tell me how much they got it for. Just wondering if anyone know the value of it. 1922 peace dollar, 1917 half dollar, 1925 quater, 1916 dime, 1891 nickel and 1880 one cent. 1921 morgan dollar.
Nice gift. The coins appear to have been harshly cleaned, polished, or whizzed, so not premium examples by any means, but hey, the price was right as far as you're concerned, eh? Just the melt (i.e., bullion) values of the silver pieces are as follows, per Coinflation: Dime = $1.20 Quarter = $2.99 Half = $5.98 Dollars = $12.79 each That's as of this post, with silver at $16.53 per ounce. So you've got $35.75 worth - just of silver bullion - there, at a bare minimum. Add a little more for the cent and nickel and plastic case, and even though these are somewhat generic quality coins, that should add up to a bit more. It's a thoughtful gift, regardless. Hope your coworkers didn't pay too much. They probably did, but that's irrelevant. Nice coworkers you have! They must think a lot of you.
The all appear to be polished, so their value above melt is probably not much, but it's a nice little gesture. You do NOT owe them your first born son.
