I have some experience in buying and selling mostly non-U.S. coins. As Doug was explaining it is a completely different realm than U.S. coins. $100 is about what I would expect you to get if you needed to sell soon and auctioned fast, if you groomed around or waited for an ideal buyer maybe even a couple hundred... my mention of it being worth $30 to me, is because I do not buy world coins at RETAIL price, I buy them way below retail or not at all, just my way. There are many foreign coins out there just waiting for the pickings and probably will be for well over the next 20+ years. I also expect that in the next 25-40 years world coins should come up to about 60-80 percent equableness in value to there U.S. counterparts in similar market scenarios. I have been strongly advocating for about 3 years now that world coins are the next hot place to be in Numismatics, now is the right time to find as many of the best as you can, so that when they mature to their full potential in 25-40 you will be there to cash in on their true value that they should be at... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
