Lots Of MS-60 Silver Dollar Rolls

BU Peace dollar rolls? Somewhere around $600/roll if the coins are nice. Otherwise, $500ish. $25/coin.

APMEX takes a while to pay, I sold them $250 face in 90% and it took me like, three weeks to get the money. Irritating. Most local dealers would do $400-$450 per roll at best unless they have a way of cutting overhead substantially... just a reality of a B&M, they need to generate about 20% returns on most items to stay afloat, unless we're talking big transactions.

If OP was local to me, I'd do $10k cash for the Peace rolls and a bit more for the one Morgan roll ($650?) if UNC, but I'd be checking out the coins in the roll first since I'm not sure the Morgans are UNC. Tough to tell through the plastic but the top one looks AU due to the dark areas on the stars, parts of the hair, etc.

If you factor in tax implications, his grandmother would be far better off taking a cash offer and selling to a collector rather than selling to a dealer or somebody like APMEX and creating a paper trail that shows income... without receipts for the purchase of those rolls, I believe the IRS would assume they were obtained for face value. Suddenly, you have a large tax bill. Collectors aren't required to tender a receipt to the individual selling the coins, while a dealer is... essentially, it is not the collectors business if the individual who is selling the material opts to not report that income.

So, OP, if you do sell? Look around locally and see if you can find somebody willing to pay cash.

Don't forget to check for hard to find VAMs you don't want to leave a bunch of $$$ on the table you didn't even know you had.

There is a good forum here on CCF if you need some help IDing any of the suspect coins you might have.

Shop around with them (but don't take them all to every store). I know one local store that would give you $400 and say they are helping you. I know another store that would give you $500+ because they have buyers lined up and know they can sell them for $600 easy. The store I go to most often tries to make about 10% on quick sales. These would be in and out of his store in a day. Just watch out. There are a lot of people in the coin business trying to take things from you for far less then they are worth. You have something here that many people want. I would easily pay $600 a roll for the Peace dollars if they are BU.

Ddave has a good point, MS60 is a generic term. Peace dollars are exceptionally difficult to grade, though, perhaps the toughest of the large dollars. Common dates like that aren't worth slabbing until you hit 65 quality... so you may want to find somebody who knows their Peace dollars well and have them take a look at 'em. I doubt those are handpicked rolls from bags for a variety of reasons, so I don't think there are going to be any gems in there, but ya never know.

TPG22, I doubt there are many buyers at $600+, that's $30 a coin on common dates that will almost entirely be MS62-MS63. If they were Morgans, sure, but they're not.

Actually, OP, if you want to sell and tpg22 will give you $12,000 for the 20 peace rolls and pay for registered shipping/insurance, I'd take it and run. Since he's saying he'd easily pay that, I bet you could probably convince him at $625 a roll, that would be $12,500, say $150 for shipping costs via priority overnight, or less for registered. You guys can do the whole thing through ebay and he gets his buyers protection.

Redacted.

I would dump the ASE rolls first, and keep the Peace/Morgan rolls until you need the cash.

If it's okay with your relatives, I'd keep the best example of each date for your collection. When will you ever get the opportunity to have uncirculated silver dollars for free again? There could be gems in there.

For the rest of the Morgans and Peace dollars, hang onto them until your grandmother needs the money. For the Silver Eagles, sell em for quick cash unless you're into bullion.

And remember, do your homework on prices. Don't get taken advantage of. Good luck op.
