It all depends on the condition. In bad condition, the book could be worth next to nothing, but in excellent condition it could fetch several thousand dollars. Antique copies of the Book of Mormon can be quite rare and are highly collectible, if you have contacts in the right circles.

Some historians and collectors may be willing to appraise your book for free if you can email them some photos of your specific copy. Check out the "Related Links" below to contact some of the most well known appraisers of historic Mormon books who should be willing to do an appraisal online.

New Answer:

It depends on the condition of the book, but if it is in decent condition it could probably sell for a few hundred. I would check deseretbook.com/auctions to see what similar books are selling for.
To the previous answerer: They are asking about 1910 not 1810, the Book of Mormon was published in 1830, not 1821.

I am sorr but the Book Of Mormon wasn't translated until after that. it ws 1821 when it was translated.

It depends entirely on the condition. You would need to have it appraised by an antique book collector, and for the best estimate, one specializing in Mormon documents. They would most likely have to physically handle the book or have some very good photos in order to know how much the book is worth.

As a very rough estimate, I have seen a handful of 1908 editions, one that had some markings and a cover in very bad shape was selling for only $8. Others were up for bid and selling for possibly ten times that.

Check out the "Related Links" below to get in contact with a few people and groups specializing in antique Mormon books and documents, they might be able to help. (I would personally suggest Ken Sanders, he does the book appraisals for Antiques Roadshow)

Is book of Mormon a masonic book?

No. Anyone familiar with Masonry who reads the Book of Mormon would find no correlation. The Book of Mormon is similar to the Bible and is considered by Mormons as another testament of Jesus Christ, to be used side-by-side with the Bible.

How much would a third edition of a Book of Mormon published in England be worth?

The price of various editions of the Book of Mormon can vary widely. Some are worth very little and others can be worth tens of thousands of dollars. It all depends on the condition of the book, any documented owners, what edition it is, etc. You should contact a professional appraiser of Mormon books. John Hajicek of Missouri and Ken Saunders of Utah are considered the leading experts on Mormon books in the nation. (Ken Saunders even does the book appraisals for Antiques Roadshow). Check out the "Related Links" below to contact them. If you email them photos and a description of your copy, they can offer an appraisal.

Where can you go locally to have a book of mormon appraised?

It depends on where "locally" is to you. Many nice antique shops or rare book shops will know of someone who can appraise antique books, but they may or may not know much about the worth of a Book of Mormon, unless it is a first edition (1830). I would consider the best Book of Mormon appraisers nationally to be Ken Sanders of Salt Lake City, Utah (he does book appraisals for the Antique Roadshow) and John Hajicek of Kansas City, Missouri (who has the largest personal collection of Mormon artifacts in the world). Their websites are at the "Related Links" below.

Do all Mormons believe in the book of Mormon?

Yes. All members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) believe that the Book of Mormon is the word of God and that it is a volume of scripture to be used as a companion with the Holy Bible. This is a key doctrine of the Church, and belief in the Book of Mormon is a requirement for baptism. Joseph Smith called the Book of Mormon the "Keystone of our religion", meaning that belief in the Book of Mormon is fundamental, and if taken out the entire church would collapse. If you'd like to learn more about the Book of Mormon or what Mormons believe about it, check out the "Related Links" below.


How much is a 1903 Book of Mormon worth?

The value of antique books varies greatly based on their condition and provenance (the story behind them). If the book is in really great condition or you can prove it was owned by someone of note, it will be worth much more than one in poor condition. And of course, the value also depends on the interest in the market, which fluctuates a lot. It would be best to have your book appraised by a book store specializing in antique books or to get in contact with established collectors focusing on Mormon documents.
