    Without picsand more accurate description including weight...it's difficult to give any type of value

    Re: Sterling Silver Liberty Bells

    There in lies my problem. They are going to be part of a consignment auction this weekend and my eyes have not seen them yet. Do not know if the Miniature Liberty Bells are made in a set size/weight or not, regardless of maker. Was hoping someone here would have more insight than me.

    With the price of silver lately I would bet not worth more than $2 ea as melt value. I am thinking they are souvineer types and the "bell" size is the size of a thimble.

    More than likely value in these would not be in the "melt" moreso in the souvenir or decorative aspect of the item, if it is the ones that are made as charms or pendants. But, as others have stated it all depends on the size.
    If it is more like this one-

    Which weighs 2 oz. and measures 2 3/8" tall, then you could base the value on the weight, but it would still be worth more as a collector type item than melt value alone. IMHO

    Somehow the Liberty Bells seem to disappear before the sale.

    Don't ya love that crap? Happens all the time. Get someone interested so they show up at the sale and... BAM!, the thing you shpwed up for is gone. And the kicker is... you were the first one in line.

    All I ended up with was four old mason jars with the lead caps. People were bidding up higher than shelf pricing on most items.
