Big gains for Walkers on PCGS price guide

Just checked PCGS price guide on Walkers. I was glad to see this series is heading north. This increase was just about across the board.

    True for Mint State (business strike) coins, but unfortunately not so for Proofs, which basically remained unchanged.

    A day without fine wine and working on your coin collection is like a day without sunshine!!!

    My collecting “Pride & Joy” is my PCGS Registry Dansco 7070 Set:

    I was thinking the same thing

    Nothing is as expensive as free money.

    They have been undervalued for sometime.

    I have had a hard time finding the last few MS65 or higher Walkers to finish my short set. People are paying ridiculous money and ive seen some good coins go. Guess this post proves i will need to adjust

    @keets.... Actually, that is correct... at that time, they still had nickel draught beers at the bar. That would have been five draughts and still have a quarter. Cheers, RickO

    Looks like they finally updated the 1917-S reverse prices in circulated grades, XF's weren't available at $50 and still can't find them at current levels, raw or slabbed.

    Edited to add: Glad I finished my MS-66 short set (1941-47) already, managed to get a handful of the common dates for < $150 when they were languishing. I've been watching this series tick up since the pandemic began and it still seems to be going up steadily.

    Agreed.
    What I also noticed is that the new, higher prices in some cases are at (instead of usually well above) and even below recent auction records.
    The 21P in AU58 jumped to $6250 - which is nice - except the last four records in Coinfacts over the past three years are all above even that lofty number.

    I’m still working on my early date set so I hope they don’t ramp up too quick. B)

    I too will start looking at the proofs.

    Kennedys are my quest...

    Many of the late dates were in a downward trend for a while. Early dates are tough in high grades especially cac approved.
