Selling Silver-Advice Please!
 
I'm looking for advice on what to sell and what I should keep and what kind of discount per coin I should expect.


Group of 1 Oz. Liberty Silver Trade Unit W/ Scales of Justice on the back- not in good shape

Group of 1 oz. Mexican Libertads-not in good shape

Group of 1 oz. Englehard bars- in good shape

Group of 1 oz. Englehard Prospectors-not in good shape

Group of 1 oz Generic Christmas coins (stamped .999 fine but no manufacturer mark)- in good shape

I don't have to sell all of the above to raise the money I need. So what would be the first group to go and which groups would you keep? (Or does it not matter?) And what kind of discount (aprox.) should I be looking at on each type of coin?

In my mind the generic Christmas coins are the first to go, but I don't know what would come next, or what kind of hit I'll take on these.

Thanks for any help!

sell them all for spot price and rebuy whatever you'd like this summer.

Sell the Liberty rounds and the Christmas rounds first. Then the Engelhard bars, then rounds, and Libertads last.

Not in good shape means tarnished? Or really banged up?

Libertads are worn. Liberties w/ scales and prospectors look like they've been bumping against eachother, minor scratches and tarnished.

Spot? Even on the Christmas rounds?

I was expecting .50 to .75 back.

I thought I would give an update for general information purposes.

I sold the silver Christmas rounds, prospectors and liberties all at .60 back.

expect .50 - $1 back of spot if going thru a dealer. person to person sale you can ask for spot and see if it is accepted.

sorry - just saw your last thread - I think you did well at .60 back.
