<p>[QUOTE="Iceman57, post: 961183, member: 16712"]You guys are so right . Icelandic coins for example before 1940 has never seen a mintage above 498.000 coin and most of the coins from that time had a mintage of 200,000 to 300,000 coins. Finding BU graded coins for this period can be very difficult if not all most impossible but like other members mentioned above they can be purchased fairly cheap. But when a few collectors of , not so popular coins get together to bid on a scarce BU coin the price can be driven WELL above any coin catalog price's. I know I have been there a few times. I once payed 70 dollars for a 10 dollar coin. But thats what makes it fun , To put a collection of unc coins that are just not out there in the open like the U.S. coins. The thrill of the hunt.</p><p> </p><p>Here is a link to my web site about Icelandic coins.
