<p>[QUOTE="jfscmedic, post: 2563860, member: 82941"]Just wondering what everyone's take is on the Greysheet Price of a coin VS what you expect to pay for a coin. Years ago the Greysheet was designed to be a guide for coin dealers to use for "Dealer to Dealer transactions only" They even placed a disclaimer on the sheet stating that you should expect to pay a premium over greysheet when buying coins from a coin dealer. But now it seems that every collector walks around with a Greysheet in their pocket or downloaded on their phone and they expect to pay below greysheet Bid for coins they are trying to buy. Scarce and Rare dates are hard to find anywhere near Greysheet price. I've been looking for a nice 1931-S Lincoln Cent and at the last big show I went to I found a PCGS VF-30 1931-S which bids $65 in VF and $70 in XF. The dealer wanted $140 for the coin. So when your buying or selling a coin do you use the greysheet to help set your price or some other resource ?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
