houston_guy462004 Valued Member United States 235 Posts	Posted 10/27/2006 4:11 pm I was surprised to see a price guide for US coins and type coins, in all grades, online by the Professional Coin Grading Service accessible at < http://www.pcgs.com/prices >. The site also has a link to Coin Facts < http://www.coinfacts.com > which has the history and other information about Colonial and United States coins with spectacular color pictures that used to be found only in the "Red Book." I remember the old days of coin collecting in the 1960s and 1970s, when the only numismatic resources for average collectors were the annual " Red Book" and a subscription to " Numismatic News" or "Coin World." Those days are long gone, and the change is all for the better. Even the latest news and articles on all aspects of numismatics can be found at Coin Link < http://www.coinlink.com >. The purchase of coins, which used to take weeks for the payment to be sent and the coin ordered from the ad (if even still available) to be shipped, is now almost instaneous. I ordered an 1860-O SL dollar from Harlan Berk on a Friday and received it on Monday. O quae mutatio rerum! Report this Post to the Staff

Much better using Heritage Galleries auction archives for recent prices on real sales. Report this Post to the Staff
Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 10/27/2006 4:32 pm yes PCGS price guide is inflated on some coins and way low on others so it is just a guide and by no means meant to be used as a true price guide, it is just a starting point and its the prices most people use on ebay to try and tell the unsuspecting buyers on ebay what their coin is worth Report this Post to the Staff
