Prices-Numismatic News

I guess its been a while since I looked at this, but the March 2003 shows some big increases in Morgan Dollars... an 1893-cc in ms60 is listed at $2500, a 92-cc in ms60 is$700 and even a 1900-s is $245 in ms60. I know this is retail and obviously well above greysheet, but this strikes me as being in the "nose bleed" range in terms of being high...My question is this...Am I missing something or is there that much interest to justify this? What do you all think?

Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    I've found Numismatic News prices to be a little more accurate in retail prices than most others.

  • I like the Numismatic News price guide but it is generally full retail (like shopping at Macy's).

    Take about 15 to 20% off the prices to makes it realistic (like shopping at Wal-Mart).

    I love Ike dollars and all other dollar series !!!

    I also love Major Circulation Strike Type Sets, clad Washingtons ('65 to '98) and key date coins !!!!!

    If ignorance is bliss, shouldn't we have more happy people ??

    i think that any coins that are within my speciality that i like and that i think are really super special coins

    the price guides are basically totally useless

    i never found that pieces of paper with printed prices on them that do not sell or buy coins to be accurate

    also for me

    the coins i am interested in within my specialities are coins that are unique and need to be evaulated on a sight seen basis one by one individually

    sincerely michael
