I try to be as conservative as possible and let a lot of bids go.

The 1901-S on ebay? It looks like it is in G/VG condition. Prolly worth the spot price of silver, which since Morgans are .7 silver/oz, so maybe worth $25. I am assuming that is the coin. There is always a premium to the buyer. The "spread," or bid v. ask is always pretty wide. --James

Hi Humboldt. I have a 30 year fixed @ 5.75%. 5 years into maturity. I have had many opps to refinance but the closing costs kill it. The banksters want at least 9K to refinance.

Not worth it for me. Also, as your loan matures, you pay more principle and less interest, making the note more valuable ...
