PCGS and ANACS 2010 Silver Eagles

Hey everyone,

I've got some 2010 MS70 First Strike Silver Eagles, and I'm trying to find out how much they are worth.

I've got 3 2010 First Strike PCGS MS70 and 1 2010 ANACS MS70, anybody know how much these are worth?

Thanks for the help in advance.

  • Well, I guess it depends on who is doing the buying. Someone chasing a registry set is going to pay more for the PCGS 70's but probably not the ANACS.

    Personally I'm a collector of Silver Eagles and to me an MS70 is worth zero more to me than an MS69. In fact my whole slabbed collection is MS69 specifically.

    To me they are worth what the mint sells them for but by all means I'd throw them on ebay and see what the market bears for them.

  • I bought the PCGS ones from Gainesville Coins located here in Florida. The ANACS one I got when I signed up for a company I'm now working for at no charge.

    You already know what the PCGS ones are worth on the retail market--you bought them at retail. For ballpark wholesale, subtract 10% to 25%, with the caveat that many local shops and smaller dealers may only offer melt value.

    Yes, my question is that the PCGS website says the PCGS First Strike 2010 MS70s are worth $125. If that is worth $125, why is everybody selling them for $80?

    Good question.
    You'll find this to be true of many coins, especially recent mint issues.
    In the case of 70DCAM JFKs the PCGS guide price can be more than triple the market price.

    I say enjoy your ASEs.
    You'll probably not get what you paid for them except if you find an ebayer willing to pay 'Guide' price.

    big difference, ain't it?!! a few of those examples is why my core collection went in PCGS holders. four words: eye appeal, resale value

    Dnelson326,

    You appear to be a new member and somewhat new to the hobby as well. The prices listed in the PCGS Price guide for the most part are very high retail. With the exception of a few series where the price guides are completely off (non of which are moderns) and the coins are exceedingly rare, the PCGS price guide runs about 50% over what you can typically buy a coin for. Thus and $80 coin being listed for $125 in the price guide is quite normal.

    This guide is what many dealers use to price store retail items. eBay typically has a discount as even though you have pictures, they are still considered sight unseen by most individuals as you cannot grade from a picture. Not being able to grade accurately from a picture is a consistent theme on these boards. I hope this sheds some light on the hobby for you.

    Regards,

  • All of you have made great points and have answered my question.

    Thank you.
