    At this moment the Morgan and the two Walking Liberty Halfs are worth just over $50 for silver value.

    The '72 Ike is copper-nickel. The '74-S could be either copper-nickel or 40% silver clad, silver would add another $10 in silver value.

    Without any information on condition or photos I couldn't guess as to Numismatic value.

    Total price? Buy them. Turn around at the door and buy it again! Do that until they run out. Hope I am clear enough on that.

    Yes, thats a pretty decent deal with silver prices as of late.

    justicious - Are you buying for silver or numismatic value? Back to the Ikes for a moment. As I said, the 74-S might be silver-clad and would be worth another $10+ just for silver. The '72, if it were a '72-S, would be silver-clad.

    Being that you posted on the Coins Board I'd assume you are looking more to the collecting aspect. If collecting is your thing and the Ikes are still in the condition that they came from the Mint, then I'd scoop up the whole lot.
