For Sale: Numismatist grab bag/help with a coin?
I have just under a pound and a half of foreign/world coins, ranging in date from 1916 to the 200s.
These coins are in various states of cleanliness, from the older worn ones to the newer, shinier ones; I hesitate to say near mint because I am not a collector, but a half-pound of these coins are stated uncirculated. I bought these off eBay for $20 shipped; my church wanted them for a global display of faith collage-type exhibit, and now we have no need for them. I am prepared to sell them for $15 shipped, unseen, which is how I bought them. They're good for collecting, jewelry, crafts, almost anything where the beauty of the detail can be appreciated; a good cleaning may raise the worth of these greatly. You'll get two small baggies of 1/4 pound each (from the listing): One quarter (1/4) pound of uncirculated world coins, about 25-30 coins, from all over the world. All coins are uncirculated, they look like they just came off a mint press. Europe, Americas and Africa seem to be about equally represented. No American or Canadian pennies. As well as "Deutsche Bundesbank bags recently imported from Germany."- Just under a full pound (1 lb.) I say just under because there is ONE coin that I plan on keeping; it's a curious-looking piece with 'Stigma' printed on both sides, and something on the bottom I can't quite read yet. Thus, I am reducing the price to reflect me 'buying' this single coin. Pictures are from the listings, I don't know if it's an accurate photo (doubt it) or a general idea of what you are getting (more than likely). I know for certain there are few Soviet Union kopeks in here, an English (I think) penny from 1916 with a vessel on the obverse, and a 1932 centavo from Chile (maybe...or Brasil?), as well as an odd coin that says No Cash Value, and some newer ones from the Middle East (Qatar). Please PM if interested or if there is a problem with this listing at all - I'm not sure if this would go here since it's non-tobacco related, or in the Pipe WTT since I'm asking for either money or tobacco as payment. If you have any info on the Stigma coin, please let me know. I would prefer payment by cash (your risk) check or money order, but would also take Papal for 3.5% extra to cover the fee. Thanks for any help. Sorry that last one is so bad; all I have is a cell phone =/ coin is actually brighter, like the US Sacajawea dollars are, a bronze-y yellow with some age. *I do not claim to know coins in any way; I am merely selling what I've bought from a seller on eBay. All information is correct to my knowledge, but should be taken as an amateur's best guess. I do not wish to mislead anyone by selling these coins, and buy considering a sale with me, you accept that. German coin bag not included.* Last edited by kzm007; 02-01-2009 at 05:21 AM.
