I'm looking to sell one roll of these and I could not find any sales history on eBay. Does anyone know a fair asking price ?


ThanX

    The May Numismatic News Price Guide has a roll of 1983-Ds for $39.00 and a roll of 1983-Ps for $235.00.

    An OBW roll would carry some premium, but I can't tell you how much, since that probably depends more upon the bidders than a price guide.

    An OBW roll of 1983-Ps sold on ebay in February for $215.50, so the Price Guide may be slightly optimistic for the clad dimes of that era.

    I don't always track these, so there might have been others that I've missed, but they don't come up very often - that I can say with some confidence.

    Thankyou, I'll try.

    My old GreySheet lists bid @ $30 which is what most buyers will
    base their price on. This date comes decent and fairly lustrous so
    there's not much of an issue with quality.

    Most of the rolls trading wholesale end up at one of the big national
    retailers who split them up to sell singles and assemble sets and they
    have a constant demand for the very few rolls that are available. It's
    not a great demand though. These companies insist on nice attractive
    coins which means MS-61 or better. A few nice MS-60's are OK but they
    won't take all junk or much of the really bad coins. Again, this date is
    rarely a problem since they come nice.

    There are a lot of people looking for gems and there are a few in these
    rolls. They will bid up the price of nice rolls and sometimes any roll they
    think hasn't been looked at.

    When you get down to it with no information to the contrary $30 is a
    good asking price to a collector and a dealer will pay a little less if he has
    a customer. You might ask a little more for an original or bank wrapped
    roll.

    They'll probably bring more on eBay since the audience is larger.

    I wouldn't consider selling a choice or gem roll at this time.

    The roll is sealed so I don't know what is inside and I plan on selling it that way...... or maybe I will take your advice and keep it for a bit longer image

    ThanX for the help !!!
