<p>[QUOTE=&quot;geekpryde, post: 1793219, member: 36248&quot;]Well like any guide, it&#039;s only a guide.&nbsp;&nbsp; I have used Numismedia extensively for a couple of years, along with completed auction prices at <a href="http://www.ha.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ha.com" rel="nofollow">www.ha.com</a> and <a href="http://www.ebay.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com" rel="nofollow">www.ebay.com</a>.&nbsp; &nbsp; I know of no better way to get a more complete up-to-date approximate value.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; <u>These prices are based on what people are willing to buy and sell for, not how hard it is for you to find these coins in circulation.</u>&nbsp; &nbsp; (I think that&#039;s what your suggesting?)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If it takes me 5 years to find a nice AU 1969 quarter in circulation, but I can buy a TPG MS63 for a few bucks shipped, or a <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1969-WASHINGTON-QUARTER-25c-PCGS-MS64-GEM-BRILLIANT-UNCIRCULATED-317134C-HE-/181090476911?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item2a29d5636f" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1969-WASHINGTON-QUARTER-25c-PCGS-MS64-GEM-BRILLIANT-UNCIRCULATED-317134C-HE-/181090476911?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item2a29d5636f" rel="nofollow">MS64 for $12.00 shipped</a>, guess what, that&#039;s what it&#039;s worth, not 5 years of effort.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>IMHO, many of the low and medium grade quarters are probably not worth holding onto, unless they are special in some other way, like Type B reverse, DDO/ DDR, errors, etc.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
