So what are 1980 Red Books selling for now that they are required?

Does David Hall have a box full in the back room he needs to sell? Why the 1980 Red Book??? Any comments?

    I was thinking the same thing, FullSteps. The prices of 1980 Redbooks are sure to skyrocket!

    I would like to find one! I have looked everywhere! What a weird standard... 1980 Red Book? I guess in a couple of years this whole thing starts over.... need to change to the 1990 Red book! What kind of standard is "naked-eye" (subjective at best)

    Alot easier just to keep things simple and put varieties in a subset then just add them every time PCGS recognizes a new variety. ( That what variety collectors like!)

    Keeps it simple and no hard rules to make changes in the future controversial.

    It depends on which 3rd Party Grading Company slabbed them, and of course their condition. I wonder if their were any proof issues that year? Maybe even some varieties - hard cover, soft cover, torn cover, folded cover, pages with extra corners. And of course the varieties will all be mandatory so start looking now before the prices go up! And remember, buy the book, not the coin. Dave
  • Check your local library. Most of their redbooks are way outdated. 1980 may be the newest they have.

  • I knew it! As soon as I tossed my 1980 Red Book, it would be needed again. I moved last year and cleaned out all boxes in the basement that held stuff I never used anymore. I think that I will call my exwife and ask her if she chucked those boxes.
    I have never seen a Peace Dollar that I did not like!!
