I can tell you that regardless of what the book says, no one pays a premium for these. I sold a lot of Mexican 20 centavos awhile back and $1 per...
Yeah, it's kind of neat. I'm not sure what it is supposed to be. Some kind of flower?
I think it does matter when the auction ends. I notice when I have coins listed that going into the last day maybe only 5 or 6 will have bids, and...
It's still frozen in its plastic container. I might open it someday but once I do I can't put it back together so I'm leaving it alone for now.
For me about a dollar or less apiece.
The coin shop I go to had a huge bin full of them and they sold them at face value. If you have a coin shop, maybe they have something similar....
How about a button? See those small round holes above and below the SL? Maybe another piece went in there.
I like East and West Africa coins like you have and I grab them whenever the price is right.
It's not so much high prices in general because I was getting deals not too long ago. It's this last week, so that's why I'm wondering if it's the...
Perhaps you are confusing me with someone else. No conspiracy theories - I just hope it goes back to normal so I can buy some coins.
I don't know what's going on lately, but the last week I think I've been outbid on everything I've bid on on eBay, even when I go to what I think...

They actually only used the P for like 5-6 years. I don't know the dates offhand but they stopped sometime around 2007. Now they use a symbol...
This isn't that special looking but it's the most expensive threepence I own. It's the rarest in the series and cost me $25.
I see what you mean. I didn't even look at the blown up picture. This coin sold for a lot more than I would have expected anyway. I was thinking...
Interesting. Thanks for sharing the link.
I have purchased a lot of proof coins that other people broke up and sold individually, and I prefer it that way, but when it's up to me to break...
When I first read a thread about a star note and realized they were worth saving, I checked my wallet and found one. That was more than a year ago...
Thanks for the opinions. I chose not to bid on it. I want my coins to look their age.
What do you think of the toning on this coin? I know some people like this sort of thing, but this doesn't look normal to me. Most coins I see of...
