What will the price of UNC raw pre-1921 common date Morgans be in one year?

Just wondering. Average eBay bid prices for single coin claimed to be UNC from a reputable dealer with over 10,000 feedbacks and 99.5%+ feedback on Oct 23, 2016.

You totally lost me with this one...

 

Impossible to answer. Grade? Eye appeal? date? Surfaces? A raw MS 65 would be worth more than a MS 61 raw common date Morgan. Far too general a question.

 

Had to change my vote. Assuming problem free and 62-63 in grade, common dates on Ebay always seem to hit around $45-50. I think bullion will stay at most sideways in the near term, so those Morgans might do the same, if not drop a bit with oversupply. At least that's my thought.

 

I believe he's simply asking about gen uncs which, in a nutshell, is basically low/low-end common MS examples. The question in itself is rather pointless; he might as well ask what the price of silver will be a year from now as the two values generally are attached/follow each other. However, since we're talking about eBay, the question becomes even more of a shot in the dark where a number of his choices could be reasonable (while others are just wholly ridiculous). We could also consider that an eBay gen unc and a true gen unc may be two totally different things; there are sellers that meet his description who sell complete dogs, that have no business being called uncs, day in and day out at buried levels, and I highly doubt that's going to change any time soon.

I certainly could be wrong, but based on another post by the OP, I get the feeling he's either considering a test of the waters, or perhaps counting his chickens before they hatch. Short of a fairly significant change in the price of silver, and considering there is no shortage of such material, I wouldn't expect much of a difference from what you see now.

 

The price will be whatever someone wants to put on it ( Ask). The value is whatever people are willing to pay (Bid). You're asking to predict the world economy, I'm no economist, but it ain't looking good from where I'm standing.

 

Hmm, i was mostly wondering what the silver content premium of the Morgan dollar will be. Decades ago, there used to be close to no premium over silver, but now, even the silver content of 1964 Washington quarters have a 40% premium over spot price. Morgan dollars have a greater premium than Washington quarters and since there are people on this board who have more experience with the history of coin values, I wanted to see what people think will happen in the future.

 

OP, you've presupposed that Ebay buyers follow some sort of predictable pattern. Nothing could be further from the truth.

That said, I expect a bit of increase in the near future. Perhaps not as much as 10% over the next year, but a visible increase.
