I didn't use a RedBook either, you guys did all the work. I just did some deductions and guessed myself. I feel awful, like I hijacked the thread. Just awful. Oh my, how badly I feel. Just don't know what I'll do.  |

2009's are already in my 2010 RedBook at .25 and .50 in 63 and 65 I think. They will be similar to the 82's and 83's is my guess in the future. IF properly graded. The design is ugly, the bagmarks dings and digs can't help but make them uglier.  |

I have a 1966 Red Book (published in 1965), and I use it to calculate the inflation-adjusted values of coins (in other words, to calculate their true value appreciation from 1965 to present!). If you'd asked 'what coins have lost in inflation-adjusted value', this would have been an entirely different contest!  With one 1965 Dollar being worth about $6.75 in today's money, a coin has to have appreciated 675% in numerical dollar value from 1965 to 2009 (ie. from the 1966 Red Book to the 2010 Red Book) just to have the same 'true' value (that's translatable to purchasing power!) that it did in 1965. Almost all non-key Mercury dimes have lost in 'inflation-adjusted' value. The 1916-D has, however, doubled in inflation-adjusted value.  The coins in this contest that have actually lost numerical Dollar value since 1965, well as for what they've lost after inflation is factored in...  That BU 1938-S Nickel was going for the equivalent of $98 in today's Dollars in 1965!  See, if a coin was worth "$1" in 1965, and it's still worth "$1" in 2009, it's now really worth about a seventh of what it was worth in 1965. Edited by DNA
