<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 2144660, member: 112&quot;]Regardless of what source you choose, what I would ask is how often are you going to update these values ? And have you considered how much time and work that will entail ?</p><p><br /></p><p>The reason I&#039;m asking these questions is because the coin market is in a constant state of change. The market has trends that may last anywhere from 3 to 10 years, but it is constantly changing, with values either moving up or down. Given that, values are only valid for brief period of time.</p><p><br /></p><p>For example, this is what the coin market has looked like over the past 10 years.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.pcgs.com/images/graphs/index10graph.gif" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Now imagine how many times you would have to have changed and updated your values for each different denomination, in each different series, in each different grade. Now imagine how many hours you would have to devote to doing that, and just that, in order to keep up. Is it worth it ?</p><p><br /></p><p>You may have a different opinion but I&#039;d have to say it is not. So what to do ? What I would suggest is to use one of the free services like My Heritage offered by Heritage. It takes a while to set up but once it is set up values update automatically as the market changes - without you having to do anything. And it will show you 3 different sets of values - 1 your value, set by you. 2 - Numismedia Wholesale. 3 - Numismedia Retail. It also allows to enter some personal data such as purchase price, your own reference numbers and photos. And when you click on My Heritage you see all of this in a spreadsheet format. And of course you can add or delete items as you wish. And it will track those as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just an idea.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
