Silver Mint Proof Sets, Value?

Postby IdahoCopper » Mon Aug 29, 2011 1:22 pm

I have a number of proof sets with silver US coins. I'm thinking of selling them on craigslist, a few at a time. Can anyone suggest what might be a reasonable premium to ask above spot for these sets? None are rare and they range from the late 60s to the early 2000s.

I'll need to inventory the exact years and sets, but for now, my spreadsheet shows a total of 14.333 tr.oz of silver, for all of them together.

Maybe I should list them here and just trade them all for .999 rounds.........

2001 carries a good premium also. in my experience the more modern silver sells for maybe 1-2x higher then face usually, sometimes spot.

The 64 and older stuff can beat that slightly atleast on ebay. the early halves can hold a decent premium though, specifically the franklins.... Its my favorite type of 90% to stack.....

99 and 2001 carry a premium , the rest will be pretty close to bullion value.
