<p>[QUOTE="Fugio1, post: 7885900, member: 89970"]I would be interested to know what CT members think of the pros and cons of these two primary auction history database sites. I subscribe to ACSearch, primarily because of its substantially lower subscription price. Most of the time it meets my needs but ACSearch does not catalog a lot of major auction houses, even some recent major sales. I was also a bit disturbed after my first subscription that they advertised pre 2000 auctions but most of these are early 20th century historical listings without prices - Interesting content for limited provenance research, but I've never found this useful. Would much rather see an expanding database previous to 2000. I've also had a number of conversations with dealers from major auction houses who who cited CoinArchives as a source for the value of a coin I was thinking of selling.</p><p><br /></p><p>Is CoinArchives a better database/worth the money, for auction history?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
