Alright, so what's your point?
I'm a avid collector of South African Krugerrands

What cha need to know?

no point, aside from the rarity of the items. Krugerands are a commodity, more than numismatic value :2 cents:

What, you want to sell it, or??

I got given an 1807 British shilling the other day, from the time of George III (The Madness of King George for you americans), not worth much but still nice to have.

no not really.......... just thought I'd share:winkwink:

It will be for sale down the road, it's getting professionally graded now.

Nice. I've got one also MS 63. In fact I've got a 42 various gold coin collection that I am wanting to sell in the $90,000 range.

.

NICE, the MS 63 is worth some serious coin:winkwink: #2 here is around MS 60 or better.

Great thread JFK ` Bookmarked and we'll see who's who in coins.

The last spread sheet I have shows bid of $4512. and ask of $6578. (cost in 1995 was $5791.)

.

How recent is the spread sheet ? I saw some auction results, (cant find the site now) but they were a lot higher. 2011 red book shows a value for the 1877 MS-63 as 60k :winkwink:

Take a snap shot of it. I'm interested in seeing it as I'm sure JFK is.

yes, saw some on auction sites, totally over graded , they are around the 6-7k mark:winkwink:

I'm 1/3 inheritor of the collection. I've never seen the coins. A spreadsheet came with some legal papers. I'm just now taking an active role in their sale and will have updated information soon if you are interested.

At 60k there has to be a big difference somewhere
.

I know JFK if he's the least bit interested I'll email him everything I have.

.

60k is listed book value, it's a guide only, Actual cash value will depend on the willing buyer and seller.

Very nice.

There was a scramble here a couple of years ago now i think for a 20p which was made without being dated by mistake.

Can't quite remember how many were made. Some were going for high prices on Ebay right away lol.

Probably best holding on to them for many years to come, and then you'll see the real value of them... Wish i had one.

not a serious collector but i have a lot of bills i have collected from the different countries ive been and purchased over the years from places along the way. dont have many coins past some old 1800's silver dollars.

those $3 coins are pretty cool though.

very cool

I like them for the historical perspective. How many hands have they passed thru over the years:winkwink:

I've been collecting coins since I was 13. No intent to sell tho...

cool coins, i guess that throws the old 3 dollar coin joke out the window;)

.

I have an 1822 Mexican Real.

I use it as a paper weight.

I think, it may have been a 3 dollar bill:winkwink::1orglaugh
