Not sure why the guy would take less than $40 a coin. If he needs the money sell off 100 at a time and get a better price. I agree the reserve is probably up there. If standard ebay fees apply he is going to pay $3000-4000 to sell them. I would guess he figured that into the reserve as well. If I bought the lot the best coins would be the top one in each stack and the others would be sliders. Kind of like buying a bank roll on ebay with a good coin showing. I was looking to pick up a few Morgans. Maybe this is the way to do it.

The reserve might not be met. That is why I did not vote. I would only pay melt for them. It will be interesting to see what it goes for though.

They are worth more than current melt.

If I make a offer, and it's higher then the reserve, do I win? ( I don't have the money to buy it, just wondering how it works)

solotime, It's an auction, not a buy it now with best offer option so it should go to the end of the auction. Some sellers state the right to end the auction if the right buyer comes along and I'm sure things happen through email correspondence, but something like that should be done 'on location' with coin in hand so to speak because all ebay insurances are lost.

I say $32,001 and it doesn't meet the reserve, which is at least $35K...
His other items are Louis Vuitton vintage cases, So I'm guessing he's pricing for the NYC crowd, not us CCF'ers

Upstate, if you use paypal, you're still protected via buyers protection... the seller just cuts ebay and their egregious fees out of the equation. I've transacted a few times with sellers I found on the 'bay outside of the 'bay to save them, and myself, money. Got one of my best deals ever that way.

@upstate, I know it's an auction. It's just I saw misleading information somewhere about reserves. Wasn't ebay, I think on google.

I was thinking $34,500.00 and it won't meet reserve. Remember they are all supposed to be MS dollars, not just junk silver. At $34.00/coin that's not a bad price, but I'm sure it's been searched and or put together from sliders and low end commercial uncs. not much chance of finding many MS63 or higher I'd gather.

I contacted the seller to see what his reserve price on the lot was.
He wants $45,000
