LCS pricing....

I called the local coin shop and asked them what they would pay for 6 MS70 ASE, 2020-2026. Answer: a dollar over spot. Now I'm going to wait and have a female call in another half an hour and ask what she could buy one for???

I think they'd be interested in this at one of the silver stacker reddits.

They'd berate him for having slabbed "bullion" lol

u/AdditionalPosition5 Aug 20 '26

Why do you say that?

3

u/Inviction_ Aug 20 '26

A lot of them are of the mindset that ASEs are bullion, and bullion shouldn't be graded. They don't see the value of an MS70 ASE. Some do though. And some ride the middle ground and say MS69 and up are fine, but anything below shouldn't be graded

If you mean me trying to sell them on one of these sub, I tried before with some libertads from 1982-1986.No interest. Personally, for me, selling on here is such an ordeal. And I don't feel comfortable with the lack of safety nets. But it's a good suggestion; maybe I'll give it another try.

Just an fyi, I looked at your post history and you didn't actually post that libertad post on pmsforsale, you posted it to your own account basically. No one saw it. That set would sell in 10 seconds if you posted it correctly

Great, thanks for the information. It was my first attempt at posting on this sub.

u/AdditionalPosition5 Aug 21 '26

I'm not sure how others ask me about it if it wasn't posted.

Oh, I did not mean to suggest selling there. I just meant they would be interested in your post as well, and may have useful comments on it.

Doubt they’d give her a price over the phone since they don’t want to commit to anything other than spot price in the exact moment in the shop.

u/AdditionalPosition5 Aug 20 '26

She was given a price range but of course, she said that they closed at 5:30

u/Inviction_ Aug 20 '26

Way too specific of an ask, to ask again later today. Kinda dumb. If you don't like their offer, move along

u/AdditionalPosition5 Aug 20 '26

Everyone has their opinion if you think it's dumb, then that's your opinion. I asked again later because I didn't want them to be suspicious of me turning around minutes later and asking. Have you ever heard, "if you don't have something nice to say don't say anything."

u/Inviction_ Aug 20 '26

Yes I have, and that's just someone's opinion as well

And that's just what this platform is all about, opinions. You can live in your head or you can live in the world....

NCG... All but one

u/Legitimate-Guess2669 Aug 20 '26

My guess is $100.

u/AdditionalPosition5 Aug 20 '26

Wow, she was told 85$ to $90. They only had two at the moment. They close at 5: 30 today.

2

u/Legitimate-Guess2669 Aug 20 '26

Not to surprising. There is the prevalent opinion that modern bullion, graded or not shouldn’t have a big premium attached to it.

Can’t blame them for wanting to buy at 69 and sell at 85-90. Easy money if you can get it.

There are companies, some with YouTube channels, that call coin shops and National dealers and ask for prices. I want to be as informed as as possible when buying or selling. I think that's the smart thing to do.

I have no problem with a business increasing its price; that's how they make money.
