<p>[QUOTE="joecoincollect, post: 2505212, member: 71338"]I know what you mean about getting good deals but it's really hard to say how good it is, because the market is much different out there. Is the market like this only here? Or do world coins sell for cheaper everywhere in general? I know mlov was saying Korean coins sell higher, but that Krause is catching on. If Krause is sort of accurate, I think it's mostly for lower value coins, not just common date. For example, I have a common date Denmark 2 krone, 1916, in AU/unc that should be 50-80 dollars I think. I got it for 20-30, and it sat like that for a while. So their price guide is off in many circumstances even for common dates, especially higher end ones. People simply don't pay what the guide says for common Uncs (ie not key dates, but maybe older, not saved to some extent, condition scarce, etc). Now, I don't know if this phenomenon is because US buyers are cheap (b/c they sense a lack of demand) or because Krause prices are off in general world wide. I think it's only accurate for lower value common dates, that's about it[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
