That doesn't look like any French franc I've ever seen. I'm wondering if it's either from one of the French colonies or some kind of token?
In my opinion the "don't touch" rule applies to a totally different type of coins than you generally find in value bins. Most value bin coins have...
While it is true that it is difficult or impossible to determine the true worth of something, all I need to know for my purposes is how much it...
Maybe so. What happens though is when I see coins in the $5 bin that I know are worth far less, it makes me question my judgment when I see a coin...
It's always satisfying when I put in a maximum bid of like $20 and the auction ends for around $2, because I really feel like I got it for a...
I can't remember the exact details offhand, but there's a variety of the 1955 Mexican 5 centavo that is worth $55 in F according to Krause. I...

I appreciate the input from everyone, but is there anyone who knows specifics about the policies for shipping? Can I put the coins in a regular...
The second one is from Taiwan and it's super common. Not really worth anything. I don't think the first one is a coin, but it's hard to tell.
I see auctions all the time that say something like, "This has a book value of $40!" I don't see how those people get away with it if the OP got...
A few months ago I started offering shipping to Canada on my eBay coin auctions. Up to this point, I have only sold single coins to Canadian...
Thanks, that seems like it makes sense.
Thanks for the info. I like it too, but I can't afford it myself edited
Thanks for the info. Do you have any idea of the value of this? Is it still collectible with the damage from being on a necklace? How typical is...
