Message:: [QUOTE="ksmooter61, post: 26679592, member: 169607"]It's all about speed. This took less than 5 minutes, and most of that was me typing and then copying the results. You said:How would you find current pricing for coins that are sold through internet auction sites like Great Collections and Heritage?Copilot said:CopilotTo find current pricing for coins sold through major internet auction platforms like GreatCollections and Heritage Auctions, here are the most effective methods—based directly on what these platforms and third‑party price guides offer: ✅ 1. Use Auction Archives (Real Prices Realized)Both Heritage and GreatCollections publish complete archives of past auction results, which show the actual selling prices, not estimates. GreatCollections Auction Archive<ul> <li>GreatCollections maintains a massive archive with over 1.8 million recorded coin auction sales, including photos and prices realized.greatcollections</li> <li>You can browse or search by coin type, certification, or auction date.</li> </ul>Why it’s useful:Real completed auction results show true market demand and reflect current pricing more accurately than dealer guides. Heritage Auctions Price Guide<ul> <li>Heritage provides a full Price Guide for Numismatists, with methods to determine coin value and real price ranges based on auction and wholesale data.ha</li> <li>Their Value Index uses recent auction and wholesale results from graded coins (PCGS/NGC).</li> </ul>Why it’s useful:Heritage aggregates prices from many major coin categories and keeps values updated daily. ✅ 2. Check Third‑Party Price Trackers Aggregating Auction SalesNGC U.S. Auction Central<ul> <li>NGC maintains a consolidated system showing past and future auctions for Heritage, GreatCollections, Stack’s Bowers, Teletrade, and others.ngccoin</li> <li>You can search by coin description, year, mintmark, denomination, or NGC Universal ID.</li> </ul>Why it’s useful:It centralizes auction results from multiple platforms, making trend analysis easier. PCGS Price Guide<ul> <li>Updated daily, incorporating dealer ads, fixed‑price lists, major auctions, coin shows, and expert input.pcgs</li> <li>Great for PCGS‑graded coins, with historic and current price graphs.</li> </ul>Why it’s useful:It shows retail pricing trends and helps cross‑reference whether an auction result is high or low for the grade. ✅ 3. Use Platform‑Specific Search Tools to Check Current ListingsEven before the auction ends, you can gauge current pricing trends by looking at active listings. GreatCollections<ul> <li>Their advanced search allows filtering by denomination, grade, certification service (PCGS/NGC/CAC), and more.greatcollections</li> </ul>Heritage Auctions<ul> <li>Their U.S. Coins portal provides access to active auctions and searchable categories of all U.S. coin types.ha</li> </ul>Why it’s useful:Active bids show what the market is willing to pay right now, often predicting final prices. Recommended Workflow for the Most Accurate PricingHere’s a simple approach collectors and dealers use: <ol> <li>Search your coin in the Heritage Price Guide → Get the general retail range and rarity metrics. </li> <li>Verify recent realized prices in Heritage and GreatCollections archives → Check multiple comps within the same grade, certification, and designation (CAC, PL, CAM, DMPL, etc.). </li> <li>Use NGC Auction Central to cross‑check results → Helps avoid relying on a single auction house’s market behavior. </li> <li>Consult PCGS Price Guide → See whether current retail values align with auction prices or if the market is shifting. </li> <li>Review active auctions on GreatCollections or Heritage → Understand current buyer demand and bidding intensity. </li> </ol>If you'd like…I can also: <ul> <li>Look up recent realized prices for a specific coin you own.</li> <li>Build you a step‑by‑step pricing workflow tailored to your collection.</li> <li>Help compare Heritage vs GreatCollections pricing patterns for your specific series (Morgan dollars, Walkers, etc.).</li> </ul>Just tell me which coin(s) you're pricing!
