[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 2186333, member: 27832"]At the large Raleigh show last weekend, while "melt" (per Coinflation) was around [B]11.4x[/B] for 90%, I found: A bunch of dealers offered [B]11.5x[/B] or thereabouts. One dealer offered [B]12x[/B]. I sold to him. The 12x dealer was advertising [B]$23[/B] for VG or better problem-free pre-1921 Morgans. I sold him some Morgans and Peace dollars, including some cleaned and polished ones, at prices ranging from around [B]$16[/B] (for the culls) to [B]$30[/B] (for a nicer AU 1886, a common date). I don't have my notes on the exact prices at hand; I'll follow up or edit this post when I get back to them, probably after tomorrow. The main point: you'll likely get better prices at a show than at a storefront, and it's entirely reasonable to expect full melt or better -- 90% still trades at a small premium to melt. Morgans and Peace dollars trade higher still. Meanwhile, if you have over $1000 worth (actual value, not FV), Provident is offering [B]12.25x[/B] for 90% and [B]$16.59[/B] for cull Morgan and Peace dollars, while melt is currently [B]11.24x[/B].[/QUOTE]
