| Bullion Direct has them for $19.79 in the catalog, with a high bid of $18.69 and a low ask of $19.20 in the Nucleo exchange as of 5:15 today. If you need the money and get cash right now it's not a bad offer. |

| At a mininum I would think 1.25 over spot would be fair. What yr are they? There are lower mintage yrs that carry a premium. |

if i was in Canada, i would buy them for the same price as ASE's.
In the U.S., they are a bit less in demand so i would pay about 50 cents less for these than ASE's. |
Buying:
Peace/Morgan G+ at $15.00
copper cents at 1.3X
wheat pennies at 3X

| I would say 75 cents to $1 over spot is a fair price. |

They have a higher content of silver than ASEs and have a fv of $5 (Canadian). ASEs are only have a fv of $1 US, currently the US dollar is almost par w/ the the Canadian dollar, they seem like a bargain. Only a matter of time before people figure that out. |

I'm pretty sure they have the same content of silver, both one ounce. Only difference is ASE's have a little bit of copper also. So actually SAE's should be more expensive because it has 1 oz. of silver and a bit of copper. |

| The ASE IS 99.9, While Maple is 99.99. Basically no difference in silver content per coin. The 'Face Value' of the coin, is simply a joke. |

| If silver crashes you can still use the coin to buy stuff in a pinch. I'd rather have $5 Canadian then $1 US as my minimum value. I remember when silver was worth close to the $5 face value on a Maple Leaf. They still sold for quite a bit over spot though back then. |

If silver ever crashes that far you can always count on me to keep a bid above face. |
The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; second is war. Both bring a temporary (and false) prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin. But both are the refuge of political and economic opportunities. |

That offer also stands for anyone who wants to sell their old silver Peace and Morgan dollars just over face!  |
