[QUOTE="900fine, post: 487728, member: 6036"]Sure, everybody has 'em. Personally, I do the online style and print 'em out. That way I have hardcopy [I]and[/I] a PDF on the disc. Understand this - coin pricing is an art, not a science. There is no definitive price guide anywhere. Greysheet is simply one more source of data for you to make an informed decision. Sometimes, greysheet prices are [I]higher[/I] than retail. You can score for less than greysheet. The more frequently a given coin* trades, the more accurate greysheet tends to be - they have more "data points" to average in. As the sheet says, some issues trade very rarely. Those prices are more difficult to predict, and greysheet is less significant. Many coins can be had for greysheet ask. Modern proof sets can be had for dealer bid - or even below. Coin prices swing wildly for really exceptional specimens. Strong coins demand strong money. [SIZE=1]* examples - common date white Morgans in moderate grades, Lincolns, Buffalo 5c, etc. The staples.[/SIZE][/QUOTE]
