Classic Coins Pillar of the Community United States 940 Posts	Posted 02/20/2014 12:33 am Kroseph33, The 1942-D Mercury dime is circulated, and only worth $2 to $3. If you tried to sell it, you would get less, basically silver melt value. The 1945 Walking Liberty half dollar looks suspect, like it may have been cleaned, and possibly polished. It's really hard to tell from your photos, but if either are true, the value would be significantly affected. The 1904 Barber half dollar has original color, and is very nice (don't clean or polish it!). I would grade it Very Good-8, which would value it at about $21. The 1886 Morgan dollar looks like it could be a high-grade uncirculated specimen. If so, it is easily the best value in the group. Report this Post to the Staff

matthewvincent Pillar of the Community United States 3486 Posts	Posted 02/20/2014 3:44 pm Look, As much as we would appreciate that he keep them as a tribute, it is not our place to convince him. He asked for help in selling and that is our task to offer HELP! No more, no less. Report this Post to the Staff
BuffalosRock Pillar of the Community United States 500 Posts	Posted 02/21/2014 12:56 pm When looking at selling common silver coins, the spot price is germane because you aren't likely to get much OVER IT for them. Since silver is at like $21.50/ounce or so - after being in the $30-$40 range for a long time, this isn't the greatest time to unload silver coins, IMO. I'd definitely keep the Morgan dollar - since dollars are at a premium and that one looks UNC. The rest I'd at least wait for silver prices to rebound and then go to a local show ( many have monthly shows nearby ) and sell them to the highest offerer. That is what I plan on doing with my "junk silver" when the price gets to my "desired spot". May take 5-10 years though. Report this Post to the Staff

chasingtailbar Pillar of the Community 968 Posts	Posted 02/21/2014 6:27 pm Quote: I'll make this simple for you and give you the answer to your burning question: Barber half $45 Walking half $20 Morgan dollar $50 Mercury dimes $8 for both on a good day I might be off by 10% on the total give or take Keep the coins, remember your grandad through them and one day perhaps by the grace and favor of God, you're grand kids will be holding them as well and that my friend is priceless Best of luck I have some coins I want you to buy, especially at ultra-inflated prices like that. Barber half $15 Walking half $8 Morgan dollar $35 Mercury dimes $5 Now that is more like it. To the original poster, if you want to sell, I would highly recommend ebay, you might be able to find a bidiot to inflate those prices. Report this Post to the Staff
