Should they stay or should they go...

I am sitting on about $200 face of silver. Nothing too rare. Some walkers, some bengies, lots and lots of roosevelt dimes. All 90%.

Going rate on coinflation is about 10.125 times face. I have an offer of $14 times face. I started looking on Ebay, and I can't replace them on Ebay for less than 15 times face. I need to go to the Pawn Shop and look around some more, but should I dump at 14, or should I hold them until I can find a replacement price that would give me a profit on the transaction.

If you don't need the money then hang on to them. Buy all you can when the market is down. History shows these will become more valuable.

To each his own, but if those coins did not fill holes in a collection and are just "junk" silver I would sell at 14x. With a little effort you can replace them for less. Right now a guy has a bunch he wants to sell me at melt.

Hello,
200 bucks in silver is a nice hoard. I wouldn't sell them unless you found a super-duper deal and needed the cash to make a buy. I have been collecting coins for years, and only recently have discovered there are many varieties of common date coin that have nice premiums. There are web sites with info, and you can find a lot of the new discoveries being offered on ebay to make a comparison with if you think you have found something. All you will need is a 10X magnifying glass and some free time. It will be something to do if we ever have a real actual winter this year. There are new varieties to be found too.
Good Luck,
Phil
