Hi i was wondering if 21 times face is good to buy? Also is $27 good for silver dollars. I think his price on war time nickels is good which is 1.75 each. Please let me know what you guys think.Thanks

Are you referring to US 90% coins available at $21 X face value? If so, that's not bad as long as the coins are not slicks or culls or bent or full of holes, etc.

Sounds pretty good for the 90% (including the dollars) but way too high for the nickels. That's actually higher than their melt value, and they typically sell for well under melt.

$27.00 for Morgan dollars is a good price if they are not smooth, or have holes in them. I would take all I could get at that price.

Yup, I would start by buying all the decent looking Morgans at $27 a pop. Then I would move on to the 90% at 21X as long as it is not slicks. But I would stay away from the War nix at that price for sure.

I think both of those prices are right in line, especially the 90%. If you can find it cheaper than 21 x FV, then let me know and I'll buy all they have!
