Decided to start collecting coins. What do you think of this as my first coin? Not sure witch one to get any recommendations? https://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-SIGNE...940362?hash=item3d5b12714a:g:-JwAAOSwK-1alST4 https://www.ebay.com/itm/R-GOLD-SIL...575093?hash=item3d5b1c20b5:g:Q4YAAOSw0u5alXWa Would love to have both of them but need to choose only one. 1. 2.
Are You from Estonia? Those are very expensive coins. Did you check other sources for similiar coins and their prices. Sometimes ebay can be a bit steep in prices especially with shipping and handling.
Yes I was born in Estonia living aboard. Estonia just tuned 100 years old and they released Estonia 100 centenary coins. They are very limited. Gold coin was minted only 3000 and the set Gold and Silver together only 700. I`m afraid it will be sold out soon.
Thanks, think I will because of the cost even tough the set is minted only 700 and might be hard to come across in the future.
Gold gold content is less than $250. I would not recommend paying this much for any coin until you are much more familiar with the market.
Yes but really like the coin especially because of the 100 anniversary and the issue limit. Wanted to get something rather rare than just bullion price
Very nice coin. I can't really say much about the price; whether it's good or bad, but the coin looks really nice.
Do You have relatives in Estonia? If yes, then try to purchase one from Estonian auction site osta.ee. The gold coins are going for 600 euros and proof sets for 900 euros. Even if You add shipping, You can still get them MUCH cheaper. Also, I wouldn't be surprised, if there are better prices in few months.
For sentimental reasons, I'd get the Gold coin. Just from your few posts, I think it has a lot of meaning to you.
Unfortunately no relatives in Estonia but I managed to find a auction on Ebay for the Gold coin. Will keep a eye on that. Thanks for the tip but feel more safe buying from international site. Hopefully will win the auction, fingers crossed.
Yes its Estonia 100th birthday what makes it so special for me. Was looking other coins until I came across this one and now cant stop thinking about it. Like the box and everything about it. Prefer it in a box rather than just a regular slab, that`s just me.
For something like that, I too would rather have it ungraded. Good luck with your decision and let us know what you decide.
