Coin Description T are a total of 45 silver world coins in this collection and together they weigh 12.3 ounces of silver. The condition of the coins ranges from proof, to gem brilliant uncirculated to very good. This is a very nice looking collection that is unique with lots of rare coins. For example, the 1980 Cayman Islands Fifty Cents is not only in proof condition but is also deep cameo (raised images on the coin have a frosted look)! Proof means that the planchette used to stamp the coin was a special highly polished silver; tfore, if you were a spy and you wanted to see if someone was following you, all you would have to do is raise your proof coin to eye level, look in the field part of the coin (the plain part with no writing or images) and use it as a mirror to see if someone was behind you! Why, yes you could! James Bond doesn't have anything on the clever numismatist, parrum pum! The huge (.900 Silver, 26.95 grams) and very rare 1900 British Trade Dollar is in very fine condition complete with a very cool looking "chop mark'" on the reverse. It features Britannia in a protective and majestic pose. The Brits minted these trade dollars specifically for use in the Asian trade markets in an effort to provide a more standardized form of currency. The chop mark was used for various reasons, one of which was to verify the silver content of the coin. The chop mark on the Trade Dollar in this lot looks like a Chinese alphabet character, perhaps. Whatever the country, you definitely want this outstanding coin in your collection, as it alone has mad, mad collectibility value. The 1966 One Dollar and 1966 Fifty Cent Bahamian coins are both stunningly beautiful and in brilliant uncirculated condition. The very thick and rare Irish 1966 Ten Scilling "Easter Uprising" coin is a real gem to have in your collection. Also included are 8 Great Britain coins from the 1800's (all are an excellent .925 in silver content): 1884 Three Pence; 1826, 1885, 1887 and 1896 One Shillings; an 1879 "Gothic" Florin (very worn); 1891, 1899 Half Crowns (.925 Silver, 14.1 grams each). The South African Five Rand is gi-normous and weighs 28.28 grams and is in either extra fine condition or uncirculated condition, depending on your point of view. T are lots of other uncirculated coins in this lot not mentioned , etc., etc. This in extremely unique and rare collection; don't let it pass you up!I will start the bidding at well below what I think this whole lot is worth, all things considered. Grading is subjective so check out the coins closely. I tend to grade conservatively but then again what do I know, you be the judge. The coins look much better in real life. So bid high and bid often! A wise person once said "What we do today will echo in eternity!" Just do it, bid now! No Return on this Auction For obvious reasons, t will be a no return policy on this particular auction. Sorry. This is why I have provided several pics and I have 100% rating which means I don't cheat people! But I assure you, you'll be happy with this lot if you win it. Check out the coins for yourself and you'll see that they're all pretty nice. Shipping Cost and Discount Sorry, but at this time I am unable to ship outside of the USA and Canada.
