Is there a web site for pricing all types of coins?

Question

Im looking to find aweb site that will price all types of coins, including spanish 8 reales. I have coin books, but nothing in them about 8 reales.

Answer 1

Pricing coins is very subjective. A lot depends on the condition of the coins. Your best bet would be to take them to a dealer who could see the actual coin and give you a good estimate.

Answer 2

Most sites are dealers trying to sell you something. A world coin site would have to be huge and costly so if there was one it would cost you. Also a site can't grade a coin for you at least not yet. Spanish and Spanish American 8 Reales would actually take up a lot of room do to the many mints and the mint masters that were around. You would need a lot of books for the coin has been around for a long time. I can only go back to 1601 and up to when they stopped minting them. That takes a few books. You can see if a library near you had the Krause/Mishler Standard Catalogs of World Coins. You would need 3 volumes. I don't know where you live but you could see if a world coin dealer is near you. Remember the Pillar and Bust type were used as money here in the U.S. up to the middle 1850's. There is even a mention of the Pillar dollar(Spanish Milled Dollar) in the Red Book a Guide to u.S. Coins so a lot of U.S. coin dealers have knowledge about them, check out a few.
