1961 Taylor & James Coin Guide

I just picked up an old 1961 price guide put out by Taylor & James published by the Canadian Numismatic Publishing Institute.
It was a much simpler time to collect coins. Terms like MS-6x and PL-6x did not exist. Highest grade coins were simply UNC (silver & nickel) or BU (1 cent coins).

In fifty years coins prices went up at least twenty times for the key dates.

Here is a sampling:

1c 1858 --> $50 BU
1c 1922 --> $150 BU
1c 1923 --> $150 BU
1c 1925 --> $125 BU
1c 1936 dot --> $2200 BU (what a bargain)
5c 1921 --> $1400 Unc
5c 1925 --> $175 Unc
5c 1926 (far 6) --> $250 Unc
10c 1889 --> $1000 Unc
10c 1936 dot --> $2200 Unc (what a bargain)
50c 1890H --> $1600 Unc
50c 1921 --> $4800 Unc
50c 1947* (curved) --> $425 Unc
50c 1948 --> $35 Unc
1$ 1948 --> $90 Unc (what a bargain)
