Carson City Morgan Silver Dollars - What are they worth?

I am selling these three coins but initially trying to get a sense of value. I am a baseball card guy selling the remainder of my coin collection. On Ebay I see these Carson City silver dollars selling for between $150 and $500. I realize condition is important but I have no clue about coins. I am hoping I can get some opinions of value here. Yes, I will accept offers also but would really appreciate some ideas of value. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks. -John

    If you could post better pictures or scans of the coins, we could better answer your question. The 1882-4 are the more common dates, but condition is also a big factor. If the scratches are minor then the coins might be worth sending to NGC (NGC is the only company which will grade them in the original GSA slab). I suggest you also look at completed ebay sales (search "GSA Morgan" or "GSA CC" or just "GSA"). Are the three shown the only ones you have?

    Great information. I received several PM's. Thank you all.

    Steve- I have a number of other coins (primarily mint sets) where I was able to establish a fair price from Ebay sales. I will post those later today. These Carson City ones were harder for me since I don't know coin conditions.

    1882, 1883 and 1884 are the most common CC dates is GSA holders, and they all sell for pretty much the same price. Larger photos of just the coins would be needed to better asses the approximate grades, in order to give you a good idea of value. But you're most likely looking at $165-$180 each.
    When in doubt, don't.

    From your pictures I'd say $150 to 180 for 1882cc,83cc, & 84cc's market is soft. 78,80,81, & 85cc's fetch $450 up. Like stated before condition biggest factor. JMO~Peace, Tim

    Possibly if the cards were ones I was interested in. I would only be interested in pre 1975 and probably only if graded but I would be happy to hear what you have in mind. PM me with what you have.

    Thank you all for your help. I just sold the Carson City's for $165 each to a friend of mine. He actually bought my whole coin collection.
