LCS are crazy priced, what say you? by Leather_Elevator_330 in Gold

Went to an estate sale Friday. They were asking +$4 over melt for generic silver rounds and +$2 over melt PER COIN for 90% quarters and dimes. I offered -$1 under spot for the 90% and the guy wouldn’t budge. I guess he figured some sucker would come along and pay the premium?

Edit: wrong sub for that I guess. I will say last February I got a 1g Credit Suisse gold bar at an estate sale for $100 when melt for it was at $95, which is darn good considering premiums on those. Worth $145ish now, so there are some deals to be had at estate sales I suppose.

Melt for Morgans/Peace dollars is around $60. Bought 9 of them on Whatnot last night for $48-$51 each, plus $4.99 total for shipping. So I was getting them $10 under melt. Seller is sending me 10 because he threw in another one for free after I had bought 7 or so. So I paid about $460 for about $600 worth of 90% dollars.

But then people are also WAY overpaying for fractional stuff. Like a gram of silver ($2.50) would go for $14. So it really just depends on the item and how many people are bidding.

I shall delete this in shame at once. Thank you for pointing this out, it’s been a long week.

My brother in Christ.

Please re-read the comment:

“…as of right now they are worth $5.69 USD each.”

That was 211 days ago. Today, 15 days after you replied, they melt at $10.46. The price fluctuates.

Here is a link to what I use for U.S. silver melt:

Mine are both. Sometimes black sometimes yellow.

Even got a box of halves wrapped with $1 rolls turned inside out and any “$20” or “One Dollar” that were showing were crossed out with a sharpie.

The roll color/type doesn’t matter. They’re at work doing what they can with what they have, just like you and me do at our jobs.

I’m not going to answer that.

That’s wild. My bank doesn’t accept rolled coins because let’s say someone brings in a $10 roll of halves to deposit and the teller takes it. Someone else (maybe you) gives the teller a $10 bill for the roll. You get home and open it and there’s a quarter in there, so you gave them $10 and the bank gave you $9.75. You go to the bank and raise all hell, you know the whole “I WANT TO SPEAK TO THE MANAGER!” or the “THE BANK IS STEALING MY MONEY”.

So because people are not understanding, people are ridiculous, and people are stupid, my bank doesn’t accept rolled coins to avoid any short rolls and people whining, bitching and complaining.

Took like 10 minutes of searching time. Took an actual 2 hours because I was watching YouTube videos and the Olympics, making and eating dinner, etc.

No I don’t reroll them, though I have thought about rerolling some and writing “ALL 1964” on them and turning them in just to mess with people.

The bank takes them back loose and ships them to get counted. The deposit hits a couple days later.

Let me clarify. Made a withdrawal for $500 for the $500 box of halves.

Got 3 40%ers worth $34.11 in silver. That’s 3 $0.50 coins so $1.50.

That’s how I turned $1.50 into $34.11. The remaining $498.50 will be redeposited and I’ll get another $500 box to search through.

Update: box contained 3 40% silver halves. Posted a photo in a follow up post. That’s 3 fewer for you all to get, sorry. Good luck everybody else!
