Ok, please bear with me as I know pratically nothing about ancients especially about this particular type. I see that in all samples they share...
I've tried to edit the post as I've got the year wrong - it's actually 1986 instead of 1981. Bit of a brain fart. But the mule still is valid.
From a production side point of view, cheaper metals can be possible if fuel prices stop significantly. This also applies to all goods as...
This price got me shocked big time. It's a regular Japanese 1981 10 yen coin (worth around 10 US cents) but unless you are a serious collector, a...
I'll say it's more towards Nepal.
Not too sure how practical these spoon coins are but they look pretty cool. Note that these coins are actually really really small - at around...

I guess try to explain it properly before making the next move. I would love to have a buyer like you tbh. More than happy to have refunded it if...

This is interesting. These 1000 Swiss franc notes were stolen before they are completed. They could be missing serial numbers, security features...
Disagree about the part of the customer being always right - a 'customer' cannot just walk in a store and trash it. If you think it's ok to do so,...
Agreed. - well done. Reminded me of a customer in a coin shop that was handling a good proof coin from Hong Kong with his bare hands after...
She could be new or just be doing her job - an employee mght have strict orders from her boss / manager to make sure nothing goes missing. I...
Hard to say - probably ten dollars each? Prices are all over the place for a while. Might get more for the Chinese coin. You might fear that it's...
