Thoughts on common date BU dollars

ChrisH821ChrisH821 Posts: 7,016 ✭✭✭✭✭

I have several rolls worth of BU Peace and Morgan dollars. With silver at about $80 they have appreciated a bit and I'm thinking now is a rare opportunity to sell at a profit and put the money somewhere it will be more useful.
At these levels I assume there is no longer any premium to their melt value, where at cheaper silver prices there was- particularly on the pre-21 Morgans. What is the going rate for these now? Melt is around $58-ish.
Do dollars sell easier than other 90% in this environment?

    ask over on the pm forum

    there are a number of threads discussing this

    assuming they are common date you'll likely see 43-48x, but i'm not the one doing the surveys

    There are wholesale buyers at over $64 for strictly BU Peace and Morgans, and over $60 for VG and better, so some premium.

    Are they nice enough to send in for grading?

    I just do slabbed material on those. Just do pricing for them based on CDN CPG or cost plus. Some may be discounted for various reasons.

    If raw would grade them and price at CDN CPG accordingly. Might discount them. Then throw into raw coin browse box unless sending in.
