<p>[QUOTE=&quot;calcol, post: 3614729, member: 77639&quot;]For NGC and PCGS certified coins, recent auction prices from PCGS auctions prices realized website is the real world for the minimum price for what collectors can expect to pay.&nbsp; Collectors can expect to pay more when buying from dealers.&nbsp;&nbsp; PCGS prices realized are hammer plus premium.&nbsp; If you&#039;re selling, you&#039;ll get only hammer, roughly 80% of the price realized value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Raw coins?&nbsp;&nbsp; If (big IF) they&#039;re accurately graded, the auction prices realized can still be used.&nbsp; However, the seller will be getting hammer minus certification costs.</p><p><br /></p><p>Most price guides have prices higher than auction prices realized which means they are significantly higher than hammer prices.&nbsp;&nbsp; If you want to know what you&#039;ll get for your collection, use hammer prices.&nbsp; Main exception is if you&#039;re willing to do the work and have the knack for online selling at venues like eBay, you can get more for your coins than selling to a dealer or via auction houses.</p><p><br /></p><p>Cal[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
