starbuxinvestor Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 616 Posts	Posted 08/17/2012 11:47 pm I am a Newbie who just started collecting Silver Bullion. I decided to visit the nearest coin shop just to see what it was like. While there I saw a Horse Blanket with an X pattern on the back in a lucite case. I thought that was pretty cool looking. Where is a good place to start looking to find out out paper notes and there values? Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

DavidUK Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2624 Posts	Posted 08/18/2012 09:53 am They have them for $7 at the moment...but the postage is so expensive to England it works out cheaper to buy a new one that is already here...which I did. I don't like buying books really, they become out of date so fast...I think they should sell them in electronic format which updates the prices whenever you connect to the internet :P ebay can tell you what certain notes go for...and certain sellers on ebay include the catalogue listings and price guide for the notes they are selling (they could be telling lies but there are some good and honest online note dealers listing many notes on ebay) And welcome starbux :) Edited by DavidUK 08/18/2012 09:57 am Report this Post to the Staff

Putting out new editions is just their way of generating income. Realistically you don't have to but a new one for years. Report this Post to the Staff
COMET Valued Member United States 223 Posts	Posted 08/18/2012 12:21 pm Welcome to paper money collecting. While getting a book is fine, the prices are usually pretty off. I find the best way and most fun is to browse through ebay completed listings. There you can window shop and see the prices realized, you can also go to Heritage Auctions too but the prices there might be scary at times. Report this Post to the Staff

The Bill Collector Valued Member United States 486 Posts	Posted 08/18/2012 5:59 pm Good Info in the better books will never go bad. And don't forget, the prices are only "guides" not what you can sell them for or buy them for. Bill Collector Report this Post to the Staff
