Why We Created Coins-Value.com
In the world of numismatics, accurate coin valuation is crucial. We founded Coins-Value.com after noticing a significant problem: nearly all existing coin valuation websites and apps are biased or inaccurate.
The Problem We Observed:
- Inflated Valuations by Major Grading Services: Respected authorities like PCGS and NGC often provide valuations that are higher than real-world prices. Complaints about this are widespread on forums like Reddit.
- Unreliable Third-Party Apps: Many other valuation tools are even less accurate.
- Challenges for Average Collectors: Most people aren’t experts or high-end collectors. They simply want to know the value of inherited or casually acquired coins. Using inflated valuations from traditional sources can lead to poor decision-making.
Our Solution: A Multi-Dimensional Data Model
To provide more accurate and objective valuations, we’ve developed a unique approach:
- eBay Historical Data: We use this as a crucial reference point reflecting real-world market prices for common coins.
- Professional Auction House Data: We incorporate historical transaction records from reputable auction houses like Heritage Auctions, Stack’s Bowers, and GreatCollections for a more reliable perspective on high-end and rare coins.
- Comprehensive Analysis: By combining these data sources, our model offers users a more balanced and realistic value assessment.
