Certainly much more than melt value, I agree that a top price of $400 cad is likely the most it would go for , and I personally would pay $100 bucks in a heart beat.

Come on guys, it still some "it is what it is" value. If it were mine, and I wanted to sell it, I'd do a good old fashioned low start auction on ebay (to attract attention to the piece) and expect bids to roll in! Let us know if you decide to do that, I'll have to watch that one.

General rule for pricing a holed coin...........
common coin 5% to 10% of trends and for a desirable date (such as this one) up to 30% of trends.
I once sold a holed and bent 1804 US bust dime in good+ condition for $3000.00 (book value being around $10,000+).

My wife says I'm easily amused, but I'm still chuckling over a coin with a filled hole being a hole filler.

It is still a rare piece despite the hole. It would often be the only piece missing from a silver dollar collection. A lot of people would be happy to have this at $200-$300 if they can never afford $1000 for an undamaged piece.

$300-400 sounds about right.

sure this coin is worth somewhere between a couple hundred bucks but it will be really hard to sell to get your money back.

Unfortunately, I think it would probably be more of a turn off to some people than the actual hole would have been (myself included) I waited until I could afford one that was problem free instead of buying one that I would have been disappointed with like that (no offense). Ultimately, there is likely a buyer for it around a few hundred for sure!

Without a doubt, the holed 48 dollar would sell for at least $200, and most likely, $300

I am still in at 400 Canadian , could sell that in a heart beat ! The other possibility , that everyone has overlooked ,this could be expertly repaired . There are guys out there who could do a masterful job. Would still be details but look a lot better . One such expert from the past was Lowell Clark , his work was excellent! Coin repair Stockton is still going strong as well!

Best to value this coin with two value components.
Full bullion silver value component is retained, but 80% to 90% of the numismatic value component is lost.
This is also a good way value gold coins and all other rare coins, that have had a previous jewelry 'life'. Depends on the type and severity of the impairment or 'details'. Doesn't help when the TPGraders won't touch impaired or damaged rare coins, and you have to be able to value them yourself.
