<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dctjr80, post: 1084338, member: 15915&quot;]I completely agree with Doug on how to price coins, but I find a wealth of useful information using the SCWC. A feature I find useful to determining a value is looking a coin up to see if it is a particularly scarce mint year for that type, or if there are well known varieties of the type of coin in question.</p><p><br /></p><p>As an example, I purchased a small bag of foreign coins at an antique mini mall one time for about $1.50, inside was a New Zealand Shilling 1942. I thought it was a cool find recognizing it as silver right away, but than I looked it up in the SCWC and find it to be the lowest mintage year of that type and wait it got better, upon closer inspection I realized that I had a &quot;Broken Back&quot; Variety (Doubling the value). I love my SCWC guides and use them often to research foreign coins![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
