[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 39089, member: 112"]Sorry but it's true :( Price guides are just not realistic - they tend to list the highest price ever recorded for a coin in a given grade. And the Red Book I'm afraid is the worst of the lot. Their prices can be all over the board - too high or too low. Searching on ebay is actually easy and it only takes a few minutes for each coin - just place a check mark in the Completed Listings box and hit the enter key. That's all there is to it. You can of course use the Greysheets - [URL=http://www.greysheet.com/]Coin Dealer Newsletter[/URL] - but they will only give you wholesale prices. But it is what most dealers use. If it really was an original '81 Proof set and every coin was a clear S - the price would be more like $1,200. Are you sure about the clear S ?[/QUOTE]
