To check my Canadian coins I usually go to this site
http://coinsandcanada.com/coins-prices.php
One problem is most of the coins values start at VG-8 or F- 12. How do you value a coin if it is G-4?

Cut the price in half from VG-8

Useful site for me. My Charlton is decades old. I only collect up to 1967. Not keen on NCLT.

Unfortunately, the "coinsandcanada.com" site has been previously documented in other topic discussions on CCF as containing errors in the numerical data in its price listings...

Keeping in mind that it's certainly possible for any publication, be it on-line or hard-copy to make an error, I will usually cross-reference between guides and check on past ebay sales, and talk to other collectors to establish value before I purchase a higher price coin...

In my opinion, if you want a reliable and current up-to-date market value price guide, Canadian Coin News "Trends" provides this... it is probably the "go-to" source guide for valuation of Canada coins that most knowledgeable collectors and dealers rely on...

Please note that again, in my opinion / experience over past 5 years it's been my observation that for the categories of Newfoundland and Provinces values, all price lists I'm familiar with seem to be quite over-inflated as to actual dollar value achieved in market sales...

Charlton Standard Catalogue is a valuable tool to have for identifying varieties as there are lots of photos and info regarding such... however when it comes to Charlton price lists, keep in mind the Catalogue is published once-a-year, in comparison to Canadian Coin News "Trends" list which is published every 2 weeks...

In my opinion / experience when compared to actual sales on ebay and at coin shows, Charlton does not reflect as accurately to market conditions as does "Trends"... I have found that the Charlton values are often significantly over-inflated...

Thanks all for the information. I just printed off a free copy from Canadian Coin News "Trends" web site. They list some coins (silver) as BV I assume this means bullion value. I have never seen this in U.S. coins terms
I'm not sure if Canadian Coins News is available at my LCS ( 72 miles )
the sample issue is May 8, 2012 is there anyone interested in sending me a current "Trends" ? I need this to check insurance value for a friend.
I only need one current copy. I will pay the postage and give a better than equal gift in exchange. PM me. Thank You.
