Message:: [QUOTE="National dealer, post: 6512, member: 487"]Well lets start with the 1921 Morgan Dollar. In G-4 I would offer melt. In VG the current bid is only $9.05After the purchase, I would give these coins away for promotions in a 2x2 with the company name placed on the holder. A Morgan Dollar in any condition makes a great impression. As far as Halves go, it all depends on the coin. Buying at $2. and selling for $2.50 sounds pretty good. As a standard, I pay 10% back of current bid of common material. For tough dates or keys, I pay over bid. Sometimes over ask. It all depends on our current needs and our ability to move the material. Many dealer around the country will tell you of our bidding wars over the right coin. I have very good customers that will step up for the right coin. Some coins do not get reflected well in the greysheet. A perfect example, today we aquired a PCGS      MS-63 1921-S Walking Liberty for 15% over ask. This is the first coin I have seen available in two years. Sometimes it is necessary to make a judgement call. When placing a value on your coins, take into consideration the customer who will eventually purchase the coin. A large part of our current line is geared towards the registry sets. These coins are far too advanced for average collectors. Just remember that you have to sell what the customer wants. Let them decide on what value they will place on it. I hope that makes sense.[/QUOTE]
