    Hello all around!

    Since some days I'm owner of some beautiful coin... Chinese Dragon (Yuan) dollar, 1898 Feng-Tien, Y# 87. I would like to ask some advise - how to understand the real value of and what is the best way for selling, if (when) I would. By pictures You can see that grade is between VF+/XF. I have found different prices for recently sold items in range of 600 USD to 10,000+ USD. Here some links...

    Best way of selling: e-bay (im not seller there), bringing to auction (bidding) houses, individual offers at numismatics forums ? Which way pls ? Or what is the value to not sell below (less) for sure for this Chinese Dragon ?

    Please if someone have some experience for selling at auction (bidding) houses ? In three words.. is this worth to try ? How many % from value (sold) gets the owner ?

    Many many thanks in advance to any who will answer !

    Hi, just wonder if it is for sale. (edited)

    Mail address removed. Also keep in mind that you replied to a post that was made more than two years ago ... and broke the forum rules by even asking that question

    1 Yuan is worth about 1/6th of one US dollar. ;)
