Question regarding entering values in catalogue

11 posts

» Quick access to the last post

I asked this in the catalogue forum and didn't receive a reply. I have three of the New Zealand 1949 crowns. I entered them all into my collection at once and entered the value as $25. Does that enter the price as $25 for each of the 3? Or should I have entered $75?
What? Me Worry
those values are just for you, neil... they don´t appear otherwise (= no one else can see them)
I thought the idea was to accumulate an average of values for what people were actually paying for coins to get a more accurate market value rather than Krause's out-dated values.

To answer your question, you would enter $25 into the box. This makes the value of each individual coin $25. Adding $75 into the box would make the total value of these three coins $225.

Hope this helps.

​Noone else can see the values you've entered even when they're viewing your public colletion, but the number is added to the median shown on the coin's page.
Hi Neal

My understanding is that the prices will show up as reference when you open a coin page...

Of course as I am currently logged in Numista not sure if this is 100% true, but if you can open this link can you tell me if you see any prices?

​I can't see any prices on that page.

I believe the price was going to be an average of 3 users or 3 entries by the same user?

For two different years in that page I have entered 4 different coins with prices... so I guess it will be 3 different users to at least show something?

There was a post I believe in another forum (website?) maybe...

Does this average account for exchange rates? I'm thinking not.

​in your user account settings, there is a currency selected (which you can change). All values inputted by you, or reported to you, are assumed to be in that currency. Before doing the behind-the-scenes calculations, Numista internally converts it all to euros.
