I was asked if I could come up with a fair price for the following coins. There are 5 Whitman albums with Kennedy, Morgans, Peace, Frankies and album of Canadian quarters. Aside from me taking pics of each individual coin, I posted pics of each entire album. I know this is a difficult task, but im just looking for a ballpark #. If the coins are not really that great, do dealers just offer melt? If so, what would be a melt price for these coins? Thanks for the help guys!
So....this is whats in each album:
JFK: 1964-1985
Morgans: 1898, 1898-O, 1899-O, 1900, 1900-O, 1901-O, 1901-S, 1902, 1903, 1904, 1904-O, 1921, 1921-D, 1921-S
Peace:1922, 1922-D, 1922-S, 1923, 1923-D, 1923-S, 1924, 1925, 1926, 1926-S
Franklin: Complete set from 1948-1963
Canadian quarters: 1953-1982 (missing 1955)
If you have any questions, I will do my best to answer them. Thanks in advance!

    You are looking at lots of bullion and spending change.

    The Gray Sheet bid - ask for the circulated Franklin set is $370 - $400. It is only $525 - $575 for the set in BU which is not that much of a premium.

    So, what would be a bullion price for these albums?

    Thanks for that site drw, however I dont think its realistic. The silver value of the Morgans, Peaces and Franklin is $923. There is not a person around that would offer $900+ for these melt coins.

    you then go over to eBay to check completed listings for melt value silver.

    there are also sites online to check for their buy price of $1000 FV bags. Yours isn't $1000FV, but it starts pointing you more in the right direction.

    And then you'd have a list of sources to provide to justify your pricing.
