[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 1013967, member: 13650"]I'm not a currency expert by any stretch of the imagination but I collect a few here and there. I've read enough to be dangerous at this point. The best thing you can do is go to ebay and to the right of the search box, use "Advanced". Once that page comes up, use that new search field AND scroll down and check the box for "Completed listings only." Then search and see what people are paying for them.
