Looking for international coins
on: August 14, 2011, 09:43:35 PM
I want to start an international coin collection. I'm not looking for anything rare, just coins from around the world. Please send me a pm if you can help me out.  :salute:

I've got a very small collection of coins you can have if you like. There's not many but there's at least one old German, Spanish and Greek coin from before the Euro. there's some old English (pre and post decimalisation), one from Jersey one from Ireland (Eire) and one that appears Middle Eastern (not sure what exactly). There's only about a dozen or so in total but it might add something a little different to the collection

PM me with your addy if these are of interest  :tu:

I think if you classify it as collectors and it's not current money. It should be ok.

Edit: it is not illegal just not a good idea according to everywhere I looked.

I've got a large collection of unique, old and hard-to-find coins too.  I have a lot of doubles (and triples) so I'll send some to you GG.

I think I have a old Roman coin sitting around the house I can ship off to you. Will have to search around for it, one of my boys may have lost it or eaten it :-) Man they put everything in their mouths
