[QUOTE="ToughCOINS, post: 3133408, member: 20480"]Of all printed price guides available, Grey Sheet pricing is most current and most accurate. With that said, I am not fond of the Grey Sheet because of the format changes made this year. Mr. Fiegenbaum and company raised their prices very substantially, and have been struggling to try and justify that increase . . . note: Grey Sheet is not $90 per year anymore . . . try $249 in print and $199 on-line. Not only should you not be surprised at Grey Sheet being higher than your annually published guide for some coins . . . you should expect it. You should also expect that some values will be substantially lower. That is because Grey Sheet is updated frequently to reflect market changes as soon as possible, while annuals remain erroneous for longer until the next issue emerges. As for older gold in particular, that is a market which often goes overlooked for lengthy periods, and can adjust pretty radically once the market realizes things are out of whack. That may be exactly what you are witnessing. Personally, I supplement Grey Sheet values with the perusal of auction results and the auctioned coins themselves in order to gain an understanding of where the market is really at.[/QUOTE]
