If I can introduce a few modern issues into this ancient party, here's three Australian coins celebrating the end of World War II.
It's all a matter of perspective. Below $5 is where I live in coin buying. My standard eBay search is set for $5 or less, and to me it matters a...
The weird thing is that "Manila" is spelled with one "l" normally, but that one has two.
This one has a mintage of 750,000 which for world coins is not that small. Maybe they just don't come up for sale. I'm not familiar with the...
Well, three people have bid $10 or more to get it that high.
Recently someone posted an Isle of Man coin and it made me curious so I looked up some Isle of Man coins on eBay and I was watching this coin....
Since the British government took over the East India Company in the 1860s I believe, it's weird that they still have a website and/or coins. I...

I'm curious what type of mule it was? What was the other coin it was mixed with?

Shipping to anywhere in the world as a regular letter is $1.10. If it's nonbendable, add 20 cents. It gets more complicated with bigger packages...
Most of mine I get from coin dealers' value bins. If you buy a lot on eBay you get an idea of what certain coins sell for, so it's just a matter...
In my opinion, having the coin in the 2x2 really helps keep it from getting lost, as does wrapping the packing slip around it. Loose coins can and...
I only sell lower value world coins, but I've never had anyone return a coin the whole time I've been doing it. People can't keep them without...
Here's how I do it. I put the coin in a 2x2, print out the Paypal slip and wrap it around the coin. Then I put it in an envelope and tape the...
