Coin Collecting Price Guide

10.08.2010 | Author: aevan | Posted in Hobbies

There are a few things serious coin collectors should have to be able to call themselves serious collectors. They should have, of course, coins, they should have coin collecting folders, and they should definitely have a coin collecting price guide. The prices and values of coins change every year.

Coin Shows

It’s common for collectors to go to coin shows where collectors will show off their collections and will also be up to selling, buying and trading so that they can increase the values of their collections. If you have your eye on a certain coin, a coin collecting show is a great place to find it.

Before you go, however, you should get a coin collecting price guide so that you know what that coin is worth. When you go up to a collector who has the coin you’ve been looking for, you can open up that coin collecting price guide and you can then negotiate based on the price listed in that guide.

Be aware, though, that if you know you need that coin to complete your collection, and that dealer or collector knows you need it badly, they will likely jack up the price because they know you want it so badly.

Therefore, you might not want to let it be known that you need that coin so badly. Treat it as any other coin and use your poker face so that you can get that coin for what it’s actually worth. Online

You can also use your coin collecting price guide to sell and trade coins online. Be aware, however, that buying and trading coins online is extremely risky. It’s hard to determine if the coin you’re getting is actually the coin you want and it’s also hard to determine the quality of the coin; especially with Photoshop and other photo altering tools available today.

Therefore, make sure you trust the seller or trader and make sure you are protected in case you are taken advantage of. At least you’ll be able to tell the actual price by using the coin collecting price guide so that you’re not taken advantage of price wise.

Just make sure you always have the most recent guide available so that you have the most up to date information available about the coins in your collection.
