Don't expect ANYONE (business wise) to pay more than 25X face value. The only way you will get more is if you craiglist them. I check my craiglist multiple times a day for people selling morgans/peace/seated/etc and no one gives more than 25X. I've been to every pawn shop in my area and the most I was offered was 20X and I got 25X from my brother long time friend who has a jewelry store in our mall. The only reason he gave me that much was because he didn't write it up. I've heard that Gold and Diamond source pays 10% less than spot but haven't verified it myself. Everyone is in it for a profit. If you go on ebay you will get the most. I got $80 for $2.50 worth before I had to pull my listing (had a good reason)and that's 32X face but also have to figure ebay fees/shipping. People will pay a premium on ebay but most buying on craigslist will buy to resell wherever they can unless you run into a collector. If I lived by you I'd gladly pay 35 a piece for ones in VF/AU (morgans)

I just sold 10 Peace $'s on ebay for $326.40. So that is over 32X face. BUT the fee's will cost me 9%, so I am only clearing a little less than 30X

You should get no less than $40.00 for the silver eagles and the melt value of the Morgan and Peace dollars is just over $32.00 each and you should not accept anything less than $28.00 each for those in average circulated condition. The Morgans in XF/AU you should get minimum $30.00 each. Anyone paying just 25X face for silver dollars is lowballing, they should be paying at least 28X. Ed ANA LM-3175

Why would you say that? I have a B&M shop four blocks from me currently paying 30x face.

I buy and sell silver coins like this all the time. I wouldn't flinch at paying $30 per Morgan and melt for eagles

You can get people to easily pay 32+ on morgans and peace. The silver eagles easily go for 44+

Biochemist, simply an example from someone who has gone through the process already. Like I said, ebay will fetch you more but you will lose out on fees (like Jay noted as well) I have yet to run into a business paying 30X but people who don't know much about metals and are looking to get into them will pay a lot on craigslist.

I sold to a shop for 29x face on saturday. I usually pay $1 under for ASE and 90% of melt for 90%, a littel more for dollars. I sell on Craigslist alot and get melt or close to it, no fees. Another 205 posts and you can sell here.
