Читать книгу Coin Collecting For Dummies - Neil S. Berman - Страница 40

Price guides contain listings of coins along with their values at different levels of condition. Different types of price guides address different areas of the market:

 Wholesale price guides: These guides satisfy the needs of dealers who buy and sell from one another and know what they’re buying.

 Retail price guides: These guides help dealers and collectors assign selling prices to their coins.

 Certified price guides: These guides record the buy-and-sell spreads for coins that have been graded and certified by two independent grading services.

You can subscribe to numismatic price guides or often also included in trade papers such as Coin World and Numismatic News (refer to “Trade papers” earlier in this chapter). I discuss price guides in much greater detail in Chapter 16.
