I don't think it's possible to estimate the value of a lot like this without seeing the coins themselves.

Have you seen the coins to verify they are of BU quality?
If so, then go by ebay SOLD prices for the same coins.
This will give you an idea of the current market.

Average of $56 per coin makes me a little suspicious they may not truly be brilliant uncirculated. Buyer beware, especially if sight unseen.

The price is fair for raw BU at the current market value.

Its a very good deal, if all are MS quality. High AU Morgans can be tricky. They look MS63/64, mirrored finish, yet that cotton boll and hair curl shows a hint of wear. That slight bit of wear taking a Morgan from 64 to 58 can get "lost" while focusing on the rest of the coin.

Seems a little high, but OK if all coins are truly MS-60 or better. I would be concerned that some (maybe most?) would be AU sliders, possibly cleaned or otherwise impaired. Only way I would consider a purchase is if there were a solid return privilege.

Grey Sheet bid:

At AU58, these are currently between $42 and $45, except for the 21 which is @ $39.

At MS60, these would be $50, with the 21 @ $43.


If they are truly MS as others have said, then it might be a good deal. $1,000 would be fair.

If they are really BU there is no down side to buying them.
