[QUOTE="kanga, post: 3664784, member: 9270"]I'm looking at a new area of collecting, US Classic Head Half Cents (1809-1836). My rules: - I ignore 1831 and 1836 (you can probably guess why). - I want to get them by Cohen varieties. That means there are 25 coins that I'll be after. The good news is that I already have 16 of them. The best news is that I have both of the 1811 Cohen varieties. I have Manley's book so I have the rarity numbers for all varieties as of the date of its publication (1998). Now the tough part. Catalog values that I have access to are by date only. Most coins, even those slabbed, are not identified by the Cohen number. [B]Assumption:[/B] Catalog values are for the most common variety for each date. [B]Question:[/B] Is there any reasonable method that would take into consideration [U]Date, Grade, Condition, Variety and Rarity[/U] and come up with a value for the less common varieties?[/QUOTE]
