[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 2461994, member: 27832"]Depends entirely on who you're selling [B]to[/B], but: Provident currently [I]sells[/I] cull Morgan and Peace dollars at $22.98 each in quantities of 20-99. They [I]sell[/I] junk 90% at $16.65 per dollar of face value, $16.22 for $100 FV or more. They're offering to [I]buy[/I] 90% at $14.79 per dollar of face value, with a $1000 minimum (that minimum corresponds to about $68 FV -- it's not a $1000 [I]face[/I] value minimum). So, assuming everything's proportional, I'd expect them to offer somewhere around ($14.79/$16.22) * $22.98 = $20.95 each for a reasonable volume of cull silver dollars. (They used to list their buy price for them, but not any more.) If I were selling to a local coin shop, I'd expect a lot less; at a show, I'd expect closer to maybe $20, less for culls, more for worn but problem-free coins, and significantly more for uncirculated common dates.

But I'm not a dealer, and I don't even sell to dealers that often, so you should definitely look for more opinions.[/QUOTE]
