with silver over $14.50 what can common VG-XF circ dollars be sold for?

Last time I looked it was $12-$13 for Morgans and $10-$11 for Peace, but what has the latest runup in bullion done to those levels?

Thanks for anyone who can help!
When in doubt, don't.

    depends entirely on the coin; a common date may go for melt or a little over but a rare date will still sell for large bucks!

    Sorry, I should have been more specific...

    What is the going melt price for common date circ. VG-XF Morgans and Peace?
    When in doubt, don't.
  • I sold some junk silver to a dealer today for 9.5x face. Not sure if it's the same for Morgans & Peace.

    I would think those levels have stayed about the same. The peace dollars may have moved a lil. say 1.00? The next movement for Morgans would come when and if Silver hits 17.50 or so. Movement from 12.50 to 14.50 is like splitting hairs.

    Good for you.

    Somewhere in the $11's is the melt value of a silver dollar.

    Interesting question. I wonder if the bullion value has now eliminated any numismatic premium on the lower grade, common dollars.
    All glory is fleeting.

    In time it will.

    The same thing happened in the '79-'80 runup. Common '21 Morgans were worth melt only, even in Au-Unc condition.

    Better grade/rare Morgans went sky high during the same time.
    "Lenin is certainly right. There is no subtler or more severe means of overturning the existing basis of society(destroy capitalism) than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and it does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."

    I have my cull dollars in my $11 junk box and my slightly beatups in my $12 box. Average circs start at $13.

    I sold some this morning at 11.00 each. They were mostly circ peace, 21 Morgans or VF lower pre04 dates.
