Question by Barkley Hound: How can I keep track of the current value of Gold/Silver American Eagles?
Most web sites that track American Eagle prices give the selling price. To keep track of my investment I need to know the buying price. The price I could get if the coins were sold. Is there a site that gives updated daily prices for both buy and sell?
I will probably just stay with the bid/ask price of gold and silver and not worry about the coin premium.

Answer by Daniel S
its hard to say. since there are so few gold coins actually circulating it is hard to put a price tag on them because you could get some VERY different prices depending on who buys. If you sell to a pawn shop or some site like cash4gold.com you are going to get pennies on the dollar in terms of worth but if you sell to someone who doesn't really understand what he's buying you could get spot price or higher for them. So its impossible to get a perfect fair value.

its been a while since I have dealt with these, the following assumes that they are one ounce coins and sell new for aprox over spot.
that said a reasonable estimate might be to take the current gold spot price which you can find at http://kitco.com/market/ subtract 2.5% (if you are optimistic) 5% if you are pessimistic and multiply by the number of coins you have.

Question by Dani: Where in North Carolina or anywhere else, can you sell old American Eagle Silver Dollar Coins for good value?
I have old American Eagle Silver Dollar Coins, from the 1980's up to the 2000's. If you know where I can sell them around North Carolina, where I would get a good value for them, or if you have any information on these types of coins, it's all greatly appreciated! Thanks!

P.S- When I say North Carolina, i'm around Charlotte. So somewhere nearby would be ideal, but i'm willing to travel some too, if need-be. Thanks again!

With these two links you can search for local coin dealers and coin clubs with people who will help you. The value of silver American Eagle coins is based on the current spot price of silver though dealers will pay a bit less in order to make a profit.

Question by Verity: Does a 1986 American Eagle Silver Dollar increase in value as time goes on? ?
Someone offered me for a proof 1986 American Eagle silver dollar that I own, mint in velvet box with certificate of authenticity. I've been doing my home work on this and they usually sell for around that price, I think it's fair. What I'm wondering is, is it worth selling now for or would it increase in value as time goes on?

For that matter, does any one know if the same applies for an 1883 Morgan Dollar?

Thanks!

Best answer:

Answer by Ben
In proof, book value for a 1986 Silver Eagle is . Now if you are selling one to a dealer you will never get and if you are buying one you will probably pay a bit less than that. Generally these do increase in value over time, but except for certain rare issues, coins in general are a bad investment compaired to the stock market (ironic right now, but true!) The worst you will ever do with these is slightly less than bullion value, they are in fact bullion. Silver is currently a bit under an ounce. If you want the money, go ahead and sell, but if you really don't want to sell you probably will come out a bit ahead in the long run by holding it. Morgans tend to trend upward, I would think a bit better than Silver Eagles. 1883 is not a very rare year (unless you have it in proof) but they are not making more of these.

Question by MT: Does the absence of official US Mint Packaging (box/certificate) reduce the value of bullion coins?
I'm new to collecting US Bullion coins (other than buying directly from the US Mint which isn't possible) and have noticed that a lot of companies sell the bullion (Silver/Gold/Platinum eagles) and Gold Buffalo coins without the box and Certificate of authenticity that the US Mint provides when you buy through them. Is a bullion coin without the US Mint box/Certificate worth lesser than ones that do have them? I see a lot of venders who are selling the coin itself without any of the original US Mint packaging. Does this decrease a bullion coin's value. Also, does anyone have recommendations for good online retailers for bullion coins? Here in Utah there really are no dealers who sell US Mint Bullion. One in Salt Lake City is an official US Mint re-seller but mainly specializes in selling rare Mormon coins and don't have much US Mint merchandise in stock.

Best answer:

Answer by The Technomancer
It won't reduce the value, but if someone asks you for the certificate to prove authenticity and you don't have one, you may have a hard time making the sale. Other buyers aren't as picky. The best way to pick up good deals on your bullion is to hit up the auctions at http://www.buybullionnow.com/ -- they're all run through eBay stores so you can easily get prices below market value for investment and resale. It's hard to find brick-and-mortar bullion stores anymore, anyway.

Question by Jim Friel: Does cleaning bullion silver coins degrade their value?
I was curious to know if cleaning bullion silver such as the American Eagle and Canadian silver dollars lowers the value of the coins. I know on other older coins cleaning them drops their value considerably.

Thank you.

Best answer:

Answer by curtisports2
It does. You would think that nobody would care, because bullion is bullion. But the fact is that bullion coins like the Eagles and Maple Leafs sell for a slight to large premium over spot market prices, depending on the year. For example, the 1996 Eagles saw the lowest production of any year in the series, just 3.6 million bullion coins (non-proof), compared to over 30 million in 2009 and 20 million in 2008. Cleaning a 1996 turns it into a coin that a collector won't want, and a bullion investor will pay no premium at all for, in fact, offer below spot for.

Answer by njsm2010
Since the price of silver is at around /oz right now, then the melt value of such a coin is ,120. Then whatever the premium is is added to it so Id start to investigate around the 00 level for this coin.
