[COMPLETE] Giveaway - 282g of world coins

markn · January 25, 2015, 04:55:24 PM

Giveaway including free post to good home. 282g of world coins, almost no post 1950 stuff other than a few US coins and one GB 10p coin. Includes some spectacularly cleaned 19th and 18th century pennies and half pennies. There's some East India stuff, a Princely states quarter anna, a WWII nazi zinc coin, a couple of decent Palestinian coins, plus much more. Fun to look through and try to identify them all with Krause or the NGC online coin guide.

I'd prefer these to go to a young numismatist or a new collector. If you're a re-seller don't bother asking for them.

Good on you Mark.
Just the thing to get the juices flowing for a new collector and will be a heap of fun sorting these out .
Well done Mate :wavemulticolor:

They're neither, but if all else fails, I'm sure I could drag them along to the next MNS meeting and find willing recipients.

It'd cost me postage every time.......

don't recommend encouraging freebees to new-bees
it is a coin forum not a giveaway shop
no offence intended Chris either

Perhaps they might fill some gaps in Triggersmob's epic collection?

I think if there were any spares then they would certainly be distributed to other collectors worldwide.

(Just a thought).

Markn, better get your local shop steward's opinion/permission first.

Thanks for the thought Uni.

Mark, if no one else takes them, I would be pleased to give them a home. I could then add a few extras to the ones I don't need and then offer them up again, or like Uni said, distribute them amongst other world collectors.

OK, they are yours. PM me your address please.

purplepennyhunter · January 26, 2015, 07:52:02 PM

That's a really cool idea. Receive a package of coins, take a few that please you, add a few that are your spares and offer them again and around and around we go!
