[QUOTE="Jim M, post: 316641, member: 4791"]Red Book has some great pictures. I use it sometimes on my large cents. Never have used it for pricing. it can basically tell you if a coin is more valuable than the next but thats about it. I go by past auctions, Heritage, Ebay etc. Also get the greysheet and use that as a reference. That seems to be what to have if your selling to a dealer for sure. Figure to sell for somewhere between 10-20 % back of bid most of the time. I remember back in the old days.. you know.... I had to walk to school barefooted uphill both ways in the winter.. Us collectors would have the red book, the dealers, well they had the sacred Blue Book. Boy was it a treat to get ahold of one of them back in the day.. HEYAAAAAAAAA.... Get them wagons rolling..[/QUOTE]
