*Wanted* 1938 Australian Crown

sirfry · November 19, 2012, 09:38:55 PM

Hi all

I am after a 1938 crown to add to my collection between now and Christmas. Has any one got any that they are willing to part with? would need pics / rough price etc. Because they can get pretty expensive I will take some time to consider any offers.

Thanks

SirFry

Extremely nice coin! A bit out of my price range however

I know I won't be able to get anywhere near that grade but I'm hoping to find something for under $500. Just so I can have one i suppose!

fingers crossed. Thanks for the post

It is a nice coin. I only have an AU58 in my own collection. Good luck with your quest.

Stirfry, you can get them for not much more than $100 if you don't mind a lower grade example.

Emu are you hungry for Chinese food? It's not Stirfry it's Sirfry. You got your specs on?

PPH: That is a very nice mule that shows up with your Unc 1938 Crown.

Yes it is nice, pity I can't afford to buy it for my own collection.

There was a cleaned EF on my desk a while ago, I'll check if it's still there tonight, if it is you can have it for $120.

Somewhere in between that grade and purple penny hunters grade I know I will find my coin!

I want something that is very collectible but not over the top

thanks for the post though. Would also like to hear from anyone else that has 1938 or 1937 crowns. They are very nice coins! I was very impressed when I saw them for the 1st time

We've got this one: http://www.numisbid.com.au/Browse/PCGS/24148331/ in our December auction, it'll probably go around the $600 range.
