Hi there! It has been a while since I've been on, but I think it is time I actually sell this bad boy!:yahoo:
This is not a coin you see for sale very often. Don't miss out. This is a very nice chocolate brown example with all 8 pearls on the crown still visible.
I need $750 USD paid via PayPal. This will include shipping via USPS Priority Mail International Mail. I live in the United States.
I took this picture a couple days ago.

Thanks for looking!

Great coin Matt,you hardly ever see them for sale in that grade,or better,these days.During the early days of
Ebay in Oz.,1999/2000,you could pick them up for $200 or less but you never see them now,i should have stocked up.

Yep, and I don't see this coin depreciating in value in the long-term, so it could be a great buy for someone!
agree
it is very nice and has been TPG as well
I already have one but I don't think it is as nice but it was more expensive -
bought in the hey day of the scarcer pre-dec coins ...

Which Facebook page? I sell a lot of coins in the states on various Facebook Groups.
Thanks,

NICE LITTLE AUSSIE BATTLER. Heaton mint 1915h half penny still going after two world wars and the depression. PCGS pop report only 5 AU55s.
Speaking of depression, it's the buyer that determines the price, not the seller.
$200 ... Australian

Missed one about the same grade but raw for AUD $500 a couple of years ago but I have to be a bit conservative ATM
Good luck with the sale Matt, nice coin. Unfortunately coin market is slow at the moment. Bluesheet value is about $1000. I assume market would pay $750 - $900 for your coin. Just my 2c worth.
Went to a small local show today & caught up.with our dealer who said the same
A slow year
Well it's almost half over...
hummmmmmm
the aussie dollar is weak
our parliament is weak
we live in ''fear'' of a recession and interest rates doing a turn around and up - like the 80's
factories are closing at a high rate across the nation
the former staple of the "secure"government job is disappearing at very fast rate and
most jobs are now being replaced by a casualised workforce
(unless you are a greedy polli then it's all just bloody marvelous financially)
i suspect that collapse of the rare coin company hasn't helped matters either
I don't think it's going to get any better for ordinary people
can't speak for the rich
just as dresses get longer in depressions and recessions
spending behaviours also get reflected
if your '23 was a gold coin
you'd be laughing all the way to the bank
Would any one be interested in this piece for $729 AUD plus shipping?
Come closer ... you're almost there

gee
give the guy a break
we a talking about a rare coin here
:blush:
OOPS - I THOUGHT THIS WAS THE 1923 HALFPENNY NOT THE 1915 H
but but
do have a look at your 2014 or 2015 maccas
the values are might higher than the posters asking price
and if you go to Rennicks (i only have the 2015) the values are even higher
Unfortunately lower grade coins dont attract buyers any more. Unless it is an ultra rare coin like a 1930 Penny, 1932 Florin or a 1923 Half penny.
In saying that your asking price is not too unrealistic.
Coin is no longer available for sale in this venue. Thanks for looking everyone. I've listed it as an auction on eBay if you are interested.
332262707331
thanks
found it
good luck mate
pleased to see it is well over the $200
as they say , the buyers often set the final market price
i think that USA ebay has reserves but I don't think we can have that one Australian auctions
3 days to go on the eBay sale!
Well, it, unfortunately did not meet the reserve I had set of $600 USD. If anyone is interested in this for $560 USD shipped, I'll let it go, otherwise I'll throw it back into the safe for a bit.
Cheers,
Matt

Prices are pretty depressed ATM unfortunately
can't set a reserve on australian ebay
Quote from: 'robbiegal' pid='109535' dateline='1498046432'can't set a reserve on australian ebay
Yes, I was taken aback when I saw that. I put in a couple of bids but not knowing the reserve was off-putting and a stopped bidding.
Hidden reserves are one of my pet hates, Right up there with buyers premiums.
When buying or selling on eBay I prefer to participate in a no reserve auction or a fixed price listing.
A no reserve auction will attract more bidders and create more interest and there is always "Wriggle Room" with a fixed price listing.
As soon as I find out there is a hidden reserve I either pull my bids or just stop bidding because most of the reserves are unrealistic and I hate wasting my time.
I clearly stated there was a modest reserve, and I had Buy it Now price. Oh well.

Just my opinion but i think around US$500 is probably a more realistic figure so US$560 is getting close to the mark for someone who wants a decent 1915.
I'm surprised one of the Oz. dealers that Post/read here haven't showed an interest as it would surely be a quick flip of around A$1000 to their clientele,it just shows,as others have mentioned,its a depressed market at the moment.
Thanks for all your help, everyone. I have accepted an offer on this coin in a private sale. I appreciate all the input you offered.
Cheers,
Matt
