[QUOTE="Omegaraptor, post: 2476259, member: 76105"]And I'm turning 13 in 12 days... As of the time this was written, 11 days for you east coasters... Anyway, price guides don't always reflect value IMO. An example of coins being listed too low is the 1863-67 S half dimes and dimes. These usually sell for waaay above price guide value, even damaged as most S-mint seated half dimes and dimes prior to 1872 are usually found damaged. An example of price guides listing coins too high is the 1912-S Liberty Head Nickel. In the 2017 RB G-4s are $175, VG-8s are $240, and F-12s are $285. A quick search on the bay for slabbed coins shows I can buy G-4s for $130, VG-8s for $165, and F-12s for $200. The price curve from F-12 to VF-20 is large both in the books and on the market, so get a nice F-12 if you want one. BTW red book is dealer sell price, blue book is dealer buy price.[/QUOTE]
