Any value here?

Outside of what the typically overpriced pawn shops are asking.

    If they’re really silver, at least melt, which makes them not too overpriced right now.
    I think you’d have to hit up a NASCAR forum to really get interest going beyond bullion.
    Edit - I just found the Kulwicki one on eBay for basically melt. One sold and one still active.

    Thanks Shaun! That’s what I figured and why I passed.

    I think spot today was $27.74...so depending on what tax is where you are, it’s not a horrible premium.

    No sales tax on coins here in TX, most of the time...
    Not interested in silver right now. I’m about to unload my silver here on the BST. I was just thinking/hoping these were highly collectible. Maybe a Dale Earnhardt would be.

    Earnhardt or Petty would probably bring some money. I’ve never heard of those other guys, and apparently nobody else likes them enough to drive the value up.
    Neat to see, smart to pass on.

    If they are not actually marked as being silver you will have trouble getting anything close to melt for them when it comes time to sell. Also, if they are not one troy ounce .999 silver rounds they will probably be discounted as well.

    I have no idea what the NASCAR fan market is for them. To me, if silver, they would be strictly a bullion buy item.

    All glory is fleeting.

    Smart move in passing. IMO.

    Likely find some interest on racing car forums....Otherwise, just bullion (if silver and so marked). Cheers, RickO
