[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2947611, member: 10461"]US coins? I primarily use [URL='http://numismedia.com/fmv/fmv.shtml']Numismedia[/URL], though I usually cross-reference that with the PCGS priceguide and the Red Book. For World Coins, I primarily use the [URL='https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/']NGC World Coin Price guide[/URL], which gets its data from the Krause Standard Catalog. For Ancient Coins, I really [I]should[/I] be using [URL='https://www.acsearch.info/']ACSearch[/URL] like most savvy collectors seem to do, but what I actually do more often is compare the retail prices of similar coins for sale on the [URL='https://www.vcoins.com/']VCoins[/URL] online mall, and rely an awful lot on gut instinct and my opinion of a coin's eye appeal. For Exonumia, one really has to use past auctions for a reference. I've been a collector of love tokens in the past, and used a [I]lot[/I] of gut instinct there when bidding. One could say I pulled my own numbers out of the air, and kept my own counsel in that category. I do "fly by the seat of my pants" quite a bit.[/QUOTE]
