I suggest you should visit a coin collector, may be among your relatives or friends, who can guide you accordingly seeing your coins. Also, do not visit a dealer as he is likely to misguide you.

ok I think I have the rest now too all 1971, all the same   1974 with eagle, 1776-1976 with bell   This is what I called the liberty dollar, yes it says peace on the back, 1925, has a mark on the front about the 5 that idk what it is if it is anything.   now these I have lots of, they are all the same pretty much, this one is in the worst condition of all of them I think. I have 1964, 1965, 1966, 1967 none have a mint mark, then I have 1968 D and 1969 D. multiples of all of them.   |

Nice detailing on that Morgan dollar. I really only see bag marks, meaning it is at least in the ball park of uncirculated condition. Its a common date though, so probably worth around 30, + or - depending on who is buying. The Peace (Liberty) dollar is a similar value, but a little less, for a few reasons. The main one being Morgan dollars sell better than Peace dollars. The Kennedy half is worth around melt value in silver, $8-11 depending on buyer. Cash for gold will offer $4 or 5. Don't do that :( Eisenhower dollars can sell on ebay for anywhere from $2-3 each. With only a few to sell, it may not be worth shipping, ebay, and paypal fees to sell. Outside of ebay I have not found enough of a market on them to say what they could be worth anywhere else. Probably about $70 in coins I'd say, give or take. I have bought similar coins for under $50, not including the Eisenhower dollars. I only ever get Eisenhower dollars like those from banks (for face value of course). I hope this helps! |

I am no expert but I have seen 1964 JFK halves going for between $9.50 to 11.00 just for good condition examples on ebay and Peace dollars that are in good condition for $21.00 to $ 25.00 each on ebay. Hope this help. |

so ebay is pretty much my best option? ugh.... I don't really like ebay all the much lol. I have 20 of the 1964 half dollars, should I list them all together or each one on its own? if as a lot, what is a reasonable asking price? |

With dealers offering melt silver coin at about 18x Face these days, you can try for about that as a reference and hope they go up. With $10 face, it would be about $180 that a dealer would get. Try starting about $150 for the lot and see if they get any traction.
Absent BU conditions it depends on luck as to whether buyers will bite, you might get lucky and have a couple bidders duel it out and drive the price up.
A decent dealer might offer about $75 to $100 for the group of 40% silver halves, Those "We Buy Gold" type joints about half that.

I got an offer for $75.00 for the 20-1964 Kennedy half dollars AND $18.00 FOR THE1886 MORGAN AND $15.00 FOR THE 1925 Peace dollar. that's about what I expected to see, not that that is what I want to get, but is that realistic of what I'm gonna get or should I wait for a better offer? |

Thats way low. Melt value for those halves is more than double what they offered and no matter what kind of numismatic shape theyre in theyre at least worth melt. The melt for 20 of those right now is about 155. The Peace dollar offer wasnt even melt value either which would be about 16.60. |

Bing or Google "online silver calculator coin" the first link that comes up for me allows entering value of coins by year series (Morgan/Peace) and includes the years they were made so it is very easy to use. It will give you the current total of the value of the silver based on the current melt value.

Someone is trying to rook you. Here are the melt values of the coins you listed from (124) Not Allowed - Auto-Removed .com... 1964 Kennedy: 7.72 EACH 1965-1970 Kennedy halves: 3.15 EACH These are only 40% silver compared to the 90% that is in the 1964. Hence the lower price. Both the Morgan and Peace dollar are the same melt value: 16.52 EACH So basically you were offered HALF the value on the Kennedy halves. And less than melt for the Peace and a little more than melt on the Morgan, but certainly less than what it is worth. 154.40 is the full melt value on the 1964s, so I would take no less than 120 for them. 25 or so would be fair for the Peace and about 30 for the Morgan. Fair for the other halves would be 2.80 a piece or so. The silver values will change almost daily, so checking on (124) Not Allowed - Auto-Removed frequently will give you a good base to work with as far as melt values go. Just be sure you check if you think the coin is REALLY nice. That will add value. |

I wouldnt worry about walking away from any of those offers. There is a value to the quick easy sale and the Peace dollar I might sit on a few days and see if I could beat it but I would walk away from the other offers without thinking twice about it. |
