<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 143048, member: 3011&quot;]The word &quot;valuation&quot; is in the title of this thread.&nbsp; Keep in mind that recent auction prices will tell you what people are paying, which may or may not be an indication of long term &quot;value.&quot;&nbsp; If you have to own the coin and you have to own it NOW, recent auction prices are valuable.&nbsp; You can&#039;t do any better.&nbsp; Just keep in mind that recent prices can be out of line with historical prices and future prices for the coin due to recent popularity, fads, advertising, ect.&nbsp; For example, if the coin in question has been increasing in price over the past decade at a rate greater than similar coins, it could indicate that you are buying into a fad, or it could indicate growing scarcity or recognition that the coin was underappreciated in the past.&nbsp; That&#039;s where judgement comes in.&nbsp; It&#039;s up to you to figure out why.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It isn&#039;t easy, but it&#039;s worthwhile to take the time to do the analysis.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
