Do these Texas rounds & bars carry a premium?

Have a few Texas themed rounds & art bars that I've gathered over the years. I'll probably take these to the ANA in Big D next week.

Should I expect a premium for any of these?

  • I am not sure about what premium that the Texas art rounds carry since I am not familiar with them but the Great Lakes Mint "150th Anniversary Texas Rangers" silver art bar and the 1975 "Texas" Gold-plated silver art bar do not carry a huge premium on ebay. The main reason that those two bars they do not carry a huge premium on ebay because they are fairly common bars with high mintage numbers. Generally speaking, Hamilton Mint bars have mintages ranging from 5,000 (gold-plated silver version) to 10,000 (regular silver version). On average, common-minted silver art bars such as those two bars pictured will fetch a winning bid ranging between $5 to $10 over spot before ebay and paypal fees are factored in.
    DISCLAIMER: I am NOT a '70's silver art bar expert but I try my best to play one on the Internet.

    I like the Texas Rounds. What is your asking price?

    In God We Trust.... all others pay in Gold and Silver!

  • Might be better selling them here on the BST as silver will probably tank this week as I have added to the stack.....

    Nice rounds and bars.

    Thanks for the info. I really appreciate it.

    Didn't mean to break protocol or circumvent the PM BST thread by selling them here. I have a table at the show. I'll probably throw these in my case and put an asking price of $7-$8 over for them. Seems like they should be worth $40 each in Dallas.
