My favourite 50p coin they sometimes turn up in change in the UK

 

You can buy them on Ebay.... link: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fr...+United+Kingdom+Fifty+Pence+2011+WWF&_sacat=0

 

that is not the US. Also, I am sick of ebay.

There are some from an eBay seller in the US

not a pretty coin. There is 3 of them and a gold. No deals like the royal scandanavian mint

 

That is rather overpriced look at no more than £2.50 and a realistic postage cost.

 

There are a few on the British eBay starting at £1.99

 

I am sick of waiting 2 months to get accross the atlantic

 

What is wrong with Ebay ? I have bought many coins on Ebay and I never had a problem.

 

I just bought this proof coin because it has a "bug" on it for my "coins with insects" collection. It is not for sale.

 

Last coin I posted across the pond took about a week by the cheapest method I could send it. Untracked, unsigned etc. It's a circulating UK coin so your most likely source is the UK.

I've checked my spares but don't have one of these. @PaddyB might have one?

 

2 months from germany as of yesterday

 

I am sure I have some somewhere, although I haven't seen any in change for a while. The ones I have will be from circulation, so far from perfect.
Like everyone else, we suffer from the postage system across the Atlantic. In theory one should get through in a week, but things have a habit of disappearing into nowhere - most usually the customs house. I have all but given up selling on Ebay now - not only because of all the extra costs that get piled on, but also the huge number of fakes and fraudulent dealers on there.
If you, @cplradar are still after one, PM me and I will see what we can do.

 

Germany is different than the UK. I have had coins from Germany take months, but usually get coins from the UK in a week or two.

 

There's one from Las Vegas, Nevada. Since when is that not in the USA?

 

do you really want that answer... 1) Don't be snarky 2) Try to be useful

 

Me, too.

 

I have bought coins through ebay and have never had a problem. I don't buy from other countries, other than Canada. I bought almost all of my ebay coins, certified, either by NGC or PCGS. I only have one coin from ICG and another by SEGS. They were both Franklin Half Dollars and were graded MS 65. Both of them are beauts. I didn't buy a coin from Coin Talk on purpose. I didn't find out until later that he is on Coin Talk. He is a great person and collector. I guess it depends on what you buy and who you are buying from. I was an auditor for North Carolina for over 30 years. During the time that I was in college, I worked for a furniture store as an assistant credit manager which is another word for "bill collector." Based on my experience as a bill collector and state auditor, I learned to evaluate the mercandise and the people. Some times I had to be a real "B*st**d" and I am still very careful who I deal with. I wish the best for all of you. This site is a real eye opener. Thanks to all of you for the information you have given me.

 

here's one on eBay right now. $8.99 with $0.99 shipping from the Colorado.
