Certainly don't throw them away. A lot of people value foreign coins even if they have no book value. Folks like myself try to complete sets just...
I like what RaceBannon said. I'd differentiate an accumulator as someone who just buys coins even if they don't need it for any set or whatever....
Sorry James, I have that one. The ones I listed above are the only ones I'm looking for.
Chip, I am just looking for one of each date. I don't go after varieties and I'm not really hung up on condition as long as it isn't covered in...
Chip, the one you pictured is another one I need. I check every few days. I've only seen one listed once, and the seller was in Mexico, which...

I don't collect paper money unless I just stumble upon something, but I always check my money when it is handed to me for stars. I got this from...

Was there several days in between when the auction ended and you got the offer? If so, maybe the winner never paid. I sell coins on eBay and for...
Kasia has a good point. When you buy on eBay you always have to factor shipping in. It often makes sense to pay more than something is technically...
Thanks for the ideas. I won't be getting them until next weekend so after that I'll see what I have and then figure out what I want to do.
My local coin shop was having a few contests to celebrate the opening of a new location, and as part of it they had jars of Ike dollars, wheat...
