My Mood:
Timewarp: Old Coin Prices

Hi, guys -- I know some of the veteran collectors here remember the old days (and prices even lower than the ones I list below), but for the younger Coin Talk"ers" who are newer to the hobby, I thought you would get a kick out of this.

I was going through my old coin books from when I first got into the hobby and found my Oct. 1992 Edmund's coin prices book -- the first coin book I bought (brand new at the time). Today, I was comparing some prices relating to the Lincoln cents I am putting together for my Lincoln cent project....

Wow, have prices changed since 17 years ago. Consider these prices taken right out of the book:

1909-S, Good $40
1909 VDB, Good: $1.65
1909-S VDB, Good: $240
1914-D, Good: $90
1922-D, Good: $4.25
1922 Plain, Good: $165
1931-S, Good: $30
1970-S Small Date, MS-65: $12

I'll be hopping into my time machine now....
