For example, Vic Bozarth recently wrote about the Coin Dealer Newsletter (CDN), commonly known as the Greysheet (<a href="http://www.greysheet.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.greysheet.com" rel="nofollow">www.greysheet.com</a>), and said that its data is skewed by the inclusion of too many sales of lower quality coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Others, such as Mark Ferguson, Laura Sperber, and Doug Winter, have all suggested that the Greysheet, Coin World’s Coin Values Price Guide (<a href="http://www.coinworld.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinworld.com" rel="nofollow">www.coinworld.com</a>), and other sources include information that is not accurate about coin values. Mr. Winter recently (<a href="http://www.coinweek.com/market-reports/first-quarter-2012-rare-coin-markets-a-quick-recap/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinweek.com/market-reports/first-quarter-2012-rare-coin-markets-a-quick-recap/" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinweek.com/market-reports/first-quarter-2012-rare-coin-markets-a-quick-recap/</a>) noted how he paid more than $30,000 for a coin which is valued at a fraction of that in Coin World Trends.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
