<p>[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 1602920, member: 25270"]I'm certainly no expert, still being kind of new on the coin collecting continuum (I've been at it seriously for about two years now), but I have learned to tell from observing auctions that some countries are consistently overvalued and others are undervalued. I know some people don't like to use eBay as a guide, but the way I see it, it is a good range of value, because when I go to a dealer and see a coin for sale, I want to know if I can get it for less on eBay or if the dealer has it priced for less than I've seen it selling for. Most often I feel like I see dealers price coins according to the price guide, whereas I know they are selling for much less online. This is why you really need to know what the market is like for a given coin. Of course the examples you give are for very special coins and most of what I buy is on the cheap side, but it still applies even so.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
