<p>[QUOTE=&quot;thecointrader, post: 1429641, member: 6477&quot;]In addition to the high-retail prices in the Redbook, part of the problem has to do with published grading standards. The Redbook has nowhere near the information for a novice collector to even begin to properly grade a coin. Then, in addition to expanded pages for grading, the book needs -- in EVERY chapter (per coin type) -- a large BOLD disclaimer in RED ink that the prices shown are for &quot;problem free uncleaned coins without surface damage, rim hits, porosity or other damage&quot; (or similar wording). For many series, the guide should consider a price listing for &quot;Cull&quot; or &quot;Basil&quot; state, and (of course) prices for lower grade coins in some series (like Morgan Dollars) should be expanded.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
