A relative has recently died, and I'm the executor. The relative had a few shares in Lloyds Banking Group, as a result of having an account with the Halifax in the days when it was a Building Society (which then became a bank, which then merged with Bank of Scotland to become HBOS, which then got taken over by Lloyds when HBOS crashed). I need to get a value for the shares on the date the relative died. Not difficult in principle, plenty of share price listings on the net, but I'm a little confused by the bid and offer categories. I (think I) understand what that means, but which are the prices commonly listed, bid or offer?
