Good Tuesday morning Maj William W. 'Bill' Price, my brief research indicates that in general Spiral Galaxies like our Milky Way and Andromeda and the like Spin in the neighborhood of 130 miles/sec or ~210 km/sec! But note the following from "Science News"
Super spirals are the most massive star-forming disk galaxies in the Universe. They are much larger, brighter, and more massive than our own Milky Way Galaxy. Dr. Patrick Ogle of the Space Telescope Science Institute and his colleagues have found that these enormous galaxies spin faster than expected for their mass, at speeds up to 350 miles per second (570 km/sec).

Super Spirals Spin Faster Than Expected, Astronomers Say | Astronomy | Sci-News.com
Dr. Patrick Ogle of the Space Telescope Science Institute and his colleagues have found that super spiral galaxies spin faster than expected for their mass, at speeds up to 350 miles per second (570 km/sec); for comparison, the Milky Way -- an average spiral galaxy -- spins at a speed of 130 miles per second (210 km/sec).
