Too bad shipping is $500 :rolling:. Please help me repot this. Thanks.
And there's 6 bids on it:bigeyes: I'm not fimilar with that coin, what do they usually go for in that condition?
A few of his items list $500.00 shipping, with a 1930 piece being listed as 1000 years old. I would simply say that the seller has hit too many "0"s and would give the benefit of the doubt pending a response to inquiry. We DID contact the seller about this first? Right? If you notice, it seems a standard shipping rate he has is $5.00 per item.
Spock, you ever run across one of these? They are an error struck on an Indian coin. There is also a 1984 10 Kronur struck on Indian Rupee in error. Yes, I asked. No response yet.Hope he changes it at the last min. so I can win it.
THe 1966 2 kronur looks like the coin in the link in the first post. The second looks like this http://cgi.ebay.com.my/ICELAND-10-K...hash=item270376932298&_trksid=p3286.m63.l1177 except instead of reeded edges, they have security edges of Indian coin (a groove with dots in it).
well it would have to be a set up. indian coins were never made in Scandinavia. it will be quite interesting to look at it
But do the indian mints make their own planchets or is that contracted out like it is for many mints around the world? Her in th US were haven't struck coins for other countries since 1984, but from time to time US coins are still struck on foreign planchets becuase the people who make out cent and dollar planchets also make planchets for other countries and a few planchets get mixed in with ours. If India contracts out as well it could be possible that some Rupee planchets were sent to Denmark.
