What is the average a coin dealer would pay for this roll?

Thanks,

  • If you think Coins magazine has correct values it would go for $5.50.
    Some call it an accumulation not a collection

    It's been a while since I've bought one but I'm guessing they haven't moved too much.

    I'd guess around $3.00-$4.00

    As a rule of thumb to guess a dealer buy value for raw, modern US coins:
    I go to ebay and see what it brings, halve that and take the greater between the result and face.

    $2.50 on a good day....
    I used to be somebody, now I'm just a coin collector.
    Recipient of the coveted "You Suck" award, April 2009 for cherrypicking a 1833 CBHD LM-5, and April 2022 for a 1835 LM-12, and again in Aug 2012 for picking off a 1952 FS-902.
  • Assuming it it truly unsearched (the op never mentioned this), for the $$ you'd get for it, I'd open it up. Maybe, just maybe, you'll hit a full stepper (well, ya never know!). If you sell the roll, and find out later there was a 63FS or 64FS, you will want to hang yourself.

    Open it up is good advice, Even if its 4 steps its worth it.

    CDN bid is $3. For that I'd probably open it.
    Need the following OBW rolls to complete my 46-64 Roosevelt roll set:
    1947-P & D; 1948-D; 1949-P & S; 1950-D & S; and 1952-S.
    Any help locating any of these OBW rolls would be gratefully appreciated!

    Crack that roll.

    Not that much, and on the off-chance there could be a mint state full-stepper in there, it's worth a look.
