[QUOTE="mlov43, post: 2254856, member: 16729"]...but Krause HAS adjusted to new realities in some cases. They used to list each of the ~relatively~ popular S. Korean10 Won bronze series coins (1966-1970) for under $100 in BU just until recently. Now, the list price is a little closer to reality, as some dates in that series (before the economic recession) were going for $200 to $300 online and inching up to these numbers at coin shows before Krause woke up to the reality. But they woke up! In the case of these slightly-more "arcane" 5 Won pieces, I chalk it up to: *Not a lot of these pieces sold in the "English-language" numismatic market *They had no pricing data (because of the above issue) *Tracking the fluctuating price of thousands of world coins is a pain *They're just crappy little brass world coins (so who cares, right?) But for Australia, really I don't see what Krause's excuse could be. Information is clearly available to them, and in an alphabet they should be able to read. After a certain amount of time, I would imagine that they will adjust. I just wonder about the curious time lag, and the reason for it.[/QUOTE]
