<p>[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 1371939, member: 25270"]You both make good points about prices rising. When wages are expected to always increase, prices also increase and if you're lucky, everything still costs relatively the same, it's just a higher price. </p><p><br /></p><p>I actually have the 50 and 100 drachmai coins, and if the coin shop is charging $2.50 I'm not surprised they don't sell. I've sold my doubles on eBay at $1 and it took a month or two for them to sell, if they sold at all. The lower denominations are the harder ones to find. The 50 and 100 are big and attractive. There's nothing special about the lower ones, so if people have them, they don't bother to sell them. It's a problem I run into frequently with world coins. It's like you are unlikely to see anyone listing a circulated 2003 Lincoln penny on eBay. Anyone who has one probably figures no one would buy it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
