KOYNGUY Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 I saw several U.S. mint bags for 1000 silver dollars on Ebay today. One from Carson City and one for Philadelphia. Are they really worth $400.00 each? The auction is not up until August 4, so they may go higher. There are no coins in them, They are empty. Am I missing something?

Just Bob Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Evidently, original Carson City bags are in demand. The one I saw had 9 bids, by 7 different bidders, and was at $403, with 8 days to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conder101 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Years ago I saw a CC bag go for over $1000, so that one will probably go higher yet. Back in 1972 at the start of the GSA sales they said that they would also be selling the bags the hoard came in. I always waited and watched for that sale but as far as I know they never publicly sold them. The claim in the auction that he bought it for the GSA is the first inkling that the GSA may have actually sold them, but if so I have no idea what method they used. Who knows, they may have just dumped them in one of their surplus government property sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KOYNGUY Posted August 4, 2019 Author Share Posted August 4, 2019 Now the bag looks like it will go over $1000 Tonite. They must be rarer than the coins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
