    Poor seller, I wonder what is going to go wrong with this transaction?

    Of course - lousy photo, not maundy but that is likely not all that will go wrong with this transaction.

    Am I seeing everything in this listing?
    I see silver or silver looking coins in
    white staple holders against a white
    background?

    They are all silver, ranging from threepence to sixpence.

    I can see through logic that there is a 1874 3 pence from QV. That alone is worth $7.00 in VF.

    All the QV 3 pence are worth at least $7.00 in VF. So there is $21.00 if all 3 are indeed VF.

    The sixpence appears to be a mature bust, which starts at $7.00 in VF. So there is $28.00

    The appears to be an edward VII sixpence which starts at $15 in VF. Now we are to $43.00

    There is a 1910 threepence, which is worth $5.00 in VF. There is a 1902 3d, worth $5.00 in VF, so now we are to $53.00

    So if all coins come out to be VF or better, there is about $60 or so here.

    It's a gamble, but at least you win SOMETHING with coins, vs loosing all money with a lotto ticket.

    At 0.0420 actual silver weight per three pence, the total comes to about 0.546 ounces of silver.

    I hope that you receive the high grade coins that you desire.

    I hope it works out. IMO, information
    about a purchase, be it text, photos,
    or whatever, should be clear and
    understandable. When it's not, it raises
    the possibility that maybe someone does
    not want you to understand it. Good luck.
