thecoinguy1964 Pillar of the Community United States 1303 Posts	Posted 05/20/2019 5:42 pm I came across a gentleman wanting to sell me bulk Barber & W.L. halves, guessing for silver only on my part. What is the going price for each? I went to ebay to see what they were selling for the first time in a long time, but I couldn't find completed or sold auctions? Report this Post to the Staff

thecoinguy1964 Pillar of the Community United States 1303 Posts	Posted 05/20/2019 5:53 pm That's melt price, but coins like this get a little premium added. Not as much as the silver dollars. Edited by thecoinguy1964 05/20/2019 5:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff

thecoinguy1964 Pillar of the Community United States 1303 Posts	Posted 05/20/2019 6:11 pm Thanks Jimbucks, that's what I was seeking. When did ebay stop posting completed or sold auctions? Report this Post to the Staff

You need to be signed in to access that info, perhaps you were not signed in. You can typically buy these cheaper than ebay through APMEX, Provident Metals, and other online retailers, and often with no shipping.
