I am looking a correct data set. Believe or not, it is hard to find 100% accuracy for public-traded stocks on major popular websites. Why? They are all free!!!! Even for the simple calculated data, such as 52-week Low/High, you should be very careful to choose your web-based finance partner.
Let's take an example:
Aegon NL0000303709, listed on EuroNext Amsterdam Exchange
You can view and download the historical prices through the link below. We should treat EuroNext data as official values.

The 52-week Low/High is 3.64 - 6.263
Now let's go to Google Finace:
The 52-week Low/High is 4.41 - 4.61
