What I have "heard" is; times the coin by ten and you will be in the ball park for silver value. IE: silver dime 10 cents X 10 = $1.00, Silver quarter 25 cents X 10 = $2.50. Please TN'ers, correct me if I am wrong here - I have never actually sold my silver, so this is just what I have been told????

For undamaged 90 junk silver, multiply spot times .7, that's a buy price per dollar face value

So doing your math spot right now is $23 multiply that by .7 & ya get $16.10 X face - that is way below what I can get even selling to my local lcs-

I'm not looking to sale, I was looking at what I should pay if I have a chance to buy

Anything close to spot/melt is an ok buy- most people/places charge a premium so you pay above spot
If tou can get it at or below spot then thats a good deal-
Since spot/melt is always changing it just totally depends-

Also look at the amount...large quantities of junk silver command a premium on both sides of the trade...Silver Dollars are hot everywhere I go,especially 1904 and earlier. clad half and war nickels are at a discount. silver bars are fetching spot plus at wholesale, ASE are worth paying spot plus a dollar or two...spot is up a little, some downside risk, maybe 5-10 percent lower soon
