What is the the inspiration behind US Coin Values Advisor?
The webmaster for this site is Daniel J. Goevert. In 1986, Dan published a book entitled Value Trends of United States Coins. Estimated retail value trends from 1950 to 1985 were researched for virtually every collectible US coin, in conditions ranging from Good to Proof. Value Trends was one of the most comprehensive works of its kind ever published. The exposure helped Dan establish a consulting relationship as Coin Editor with Edmund Publications from 1989 to 2000. Dan played a key role in producing nearly 20 nationally distributed coin books during his consultancy with Edmund. Dan’s demonstrated skill as a researcher and stickler for detail generate useful tools for collectors seeking to bridge values from today’s coin market to those of past decades.
