Price guide

What price guide are people using. I have been using NGC US price guide. Prices seem a little different than the Red Book.

I go by how much I'm willing to spend on it. Most printed price guides are already wrong by the time they hit the shelves. Researching completed auctions will give you a better idea of the price trends on particular coin values.

 

A combination of the Greysheet and auction records.

 

how accurate are numismedia and NGC's price guides? Or are they essentially the same thing? They have my 1958-D Washington quarter listed as $225 for an MS-67, would this be a good price for that?

 

Accuracy is relative, and yes.

MS67 according to whom?

 

I use completed auctions, both ebay and major auctions houses, as a guide. I also have a price guide specific to the area of coins I collect, but even that price guide is really just a collection of auction prices with imputed pricing data for grades other than what sold at auction.

try www.numismedia.com for raw coins.

 

ANACS old white holder so probably fairly accurate on the grade.
