    Hi, sazzy,

    Historical prices are available on yahoo finance, here.

    HTH, and sorry for your loss.

    Thank you for you kind reply. Do you also know if you find the mid price by taking taking the low from the high?

    Add the two together and devide by 2.
    The figure you are looking may be more appropriately the mid of the open and close, not sure.
    Hope for the best.....Plan for the worst!

  • I thought the close price was the same as the mid price. I thought you normally cannot buy and sell shares at exactly the same price, due to fees / commission, etc, and because of this difference, the "share price" quoted was neither the sell price or the buy price, but the "mid" price.

    I hope I am not getting confused with something else!

    Strictly speaking, you do not need the mid price for probate, you need the 'quarter up' value. That is the lower price plus a quarter of the difference between the two prices.

    However if there's only one relatively small shareholding it's not going to make a great deal of difference.
