    Blue book is a general idea on what a coin dealer may pay you for a coin. Coin prices change constantly.

    If you are looking to grade a coin you can send it in to be slabbed but sometimes you pay more for the slab than the coin is worth. A good guide for grading is photograde. If your into error coins pick up the cherrypicker’s guide.

    PS the coin in PR65 Cameo is only worth $32 retail. A dealer may pay $20 or $15. That is more than the silver price.
