It’s all a rip off no matter where you go. They are buying them for like 6-7 dollars for half dollars and 12-13 dollars for silver dollars.

I have a pawn shop that I have an agreement with. I buy all gold coins. I sort through what I want and sell the others. I pay 90% of spot +5% for all US gold and spot plus 5% for Krugerrands. I also buy designer purses for wife at 25% max and I bought her a 1 carat GIA VS2 E diamond for $2500. He made some on the diamond, but; my wife was thrilled. I figure I saved 50% or so. She loved the purple print Versace purse I bought her there.

surprisingly, a guy walked in the store while i was making my purchase, and got $30 for two peace dollars very quickly with no muss, no fuss, and apparently most importantly to the dealer, no paperwork.

i was initially coming up a few dollars short of the cash on hand that i needed to complete the purchase, and offered to use a debit card to bridge the gap. The response was that the shop did not use any plastic whatsoever. they also preferred not to give out any receipts. (this is a well known shop in the local community btw. i ended up there because of the size and type of my transaction being too large for several coin dealers that were closer to me.)
