<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KurtS, post: 718383, member: 11786&quot;]I would agree with that. The values listed in Krause for some coins are <i>off</i>, particularly for countries / coin series with strong domestic collector bases, such as Australia. For example, the Aus. 1925 Penny (a key coin) is listed in Krause for $200 VF. In an Australian catalogue (Maccas), the same coin is AUD $425 (USD $392). If I could get that coin for $200 in VF, I&#039;d buy <i>all I can</i> and export to Australia.</p><p><br /></p><p>Krause has taken a blanket approach to valuation, and many common coins are simply overvalued in there. Perhaps the same can be said of Aussie sovereigns, as applied to the US market. However, what might be cheap in the US can be priced quite differently in other collector markets. I buy a lot of Scandinavian coins in the US which would cost 2-3X the price in Europe. Just a few examples.</p><p><br /></p><p>So I&#039;ll see what my Aussie friends say about your Sovereign, although it might be different for the UK.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
