Disclaimer: The prices listed in the various NGC Price and Value Guides are compiled from a number of independent, third party sources in the numismatic community which NGC believes to be reliable. The NGC Price Guide value shows the average dealer retail price for an NGC-certified coin in a standard holder with a standard label, not specific prices for individual coins and does not reflect any premiums for special holders, labels or designations. Further, because these prices are only updated from time to time, they do not reflect short term pricing trends, which are quite common and are often quite dramatic, given the volatile nature of the collectible coin marketplace. This is especially true for rare coins, where there are fewer sales and greater variations in sale prices. For all of these reasons, the prices in these guides are designed to serve merely as one of many measures and factors that coin buyers and sellers can use in determining coin values. These prices are not intended, and should not be relied upon, to replace the due diligence and — when appropriate — expert consultation that coin buyers and sellers should undertake when entering into a coin transaction. As such, NGC disclaims all warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information contained in the NGC Guides. By using the NGC Guides, the user agrees that neither NGC nor any of its affiliates, shareholders, officers, employees or agents shall have any liability for any loss or damage of any kind, including without limitation any loss arising from reliance on the information contained in the Guides.

The population in a given grade reflects the number of coins graded by NGC with that exact grade, designation (e.g. + or Early Releases) and strike character (e.g. BN or Ultra Cameo). The population “in higher grades” reflects the number of coins graded by NGC with a higher grade and/or better designations and strike characters. If the coin’s label has a signature (e.g. Mercanti Signature), the population will be limited to coins with that exact signature.

For example, if the coin’s grade is NGC AU 58 BN, the population shown will reflect all coins graded NGC AU 58 BN. The population “in higher grades” will include coins graded NGC AU 58 RB, NGC AU 58 RD, NGC AU 60 BN, etc.
