<p>[QUOTE="joecoincollect, post: 2504952, member: 71338"]This may seem like a dumb question, but I just wanted to ask because I never seen a foreign price guide like britain's (spink?) or Canada's etc. I know world dealers at shows use Krause, but maybe that's because they're American and only Americans use Krause (?). I've heard Krause having way off prices, so that's what made me think that they're not doing their homework or make their price guide based on American interest and demand in world coins. I think some aspect of an American flavor to pricing is evident in their guide, since they only show values for most coins starting in Vf, as if no one collects problem free lower grade examples. For example, I picked up an 1836 English half crown in Vg/f for 25 dollars. The guide on ngc (based on Krause) only starts with an Vf at 125. Needless to say, the catalog is not helpful here. Thanks for reading[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
