[QUOTE="Collect89, post: 1153040, member: 15445"][b]Wish my British coins were hammered[/b] Most of my personal Great Britain coins are listed in the Milled Coinage section. Of course, milled coins are those coins made by minting machinery as opposed to being struck by hand with dies & a hammer. This book lists Great Britain milled coinage from the later part of the 17th Century to present. Like most coin catalogs, the editors do their best to keep track of sales and update prices in the book. Of course, the editorial staff doesn’t get data from all sales and some coins just don’t sell every year. In addition to this, we all know that two coins may have the same grade but the prices actually realized can vary significantly. How do you guys think the catalog prices for Great Britain milled coinage compare to the true realized prices at coin shops, coin shows, and auctions? IMHO, the prices I find at coin shows are about 25%-50% below the prices in the 2011 British Coins Market Values book. That doesn’t apply to every listing in the book by any means.
