The store I go to charged 18x face the last time I was there (before December). For that price I get to pick whatever coins I want from their stock on hand; no minimum.
Another local shop has a much cheaper price but you get what they give you, which means I may or may not find ANY coins I need. Also, I think the minimum price is around $1,500.00, which is something I never have laying around.

20 to 22 times face
Dime $2
Half $10
Morgan $22
It's a sellers market here, a mid-sized town with 2 LCS that are on opposite sides of an intersection. Pricing can get interesting.

$22 for a morgan!? That's insane. My LCS is a ripoff compared to the prices posted already. Mercs:$3 Rosie:$2.50 SLQ:$6 Barber Q:$6-$7 Walker:$12 Barber half:$13 You can't find a decent morgan for less than $30. The $29 bin is full of beat up morgans and Peace dollars. You don't even wanna know what you get when you ask for melt. Usually you don't know because they are so slick. |

Thanks for all the replies, seems that 15x is a pretty good deal. He has Mercs and Roosies for $1.50 Barber, Standing Liberty and Washington quarters for $3.75 Walking Liberty, Franklin and Kennedy halves for $7.50 Im thinking I should go back and buy some more. |

I am pretty sure that my LCS buys for 23x face and sells at 26x face.

I am pretty sure that my LCS buys for 23x face and sells at 26x face. Wow! I find that hard to believe. How does the guy stay in business? I can only think that he hasn't any competition (aside from the internet) in that location. He is paying close to double what most stores will buy at. Of course, if I'm looking to sell my junk silver coins then I LOVE THE GUY!! If I'm buying; not so much. Called my local shop yesterday to see what they had and the guy told me not to bother coming in as he isn't getting anything new in as people don't want to sell so low. He had lots of Canadian but little or none U.S. coinage. I forgot to ask what his current rates were (sorry) as I was disappointed that I couldn't blow more of my hard earned money on coins. |

$22 is a awesome price for morgans/peace. Don't be fooled by melt for silver dollars, you will not get it that cheap

I just bought a '34 Peace Au50 for $40.00. I guess I over paid compared to you guys.

Not really the $22 one I got is not graded and is heavily worn, I would not even give it a VF20 rating, it was a junk bin hole filler. At AU50 you are paying for the grade not the silver, maybe a bit high over spot but I'd say it was a decent deal. |
