Please note if eBay lists at the top of the page that I am away, I will only be able to ship coins once I return, I have to travel quite a bit for work. I always list the date of the return so that you can decide to buy and wait or buy a different coin. Thank you for your understanding.
Shipping by US Postal Services in the US is .20, overseas .85 uninsured,
not tracked
and not registered. If you win and would like your item to be sent either registered or insured, please contact me before paying. I combine on multiple wins when paid in single transaction - usually it is 25 cents per additional coin for domestic shipping and 50 cents for international, reasonably capped for weight and shipping method, heavier items will be more. I am
unable to refund shipping when paid separately
due to eBay and PayPal fees that are non-refundable.
I am a coin collector getting rid of some of the duplicates or items I bought over years and no longer need. You can find some of my coins here

.
Each coin is individually scanned, I do not use stock pictures. Pricing is according to my estimate of the grade, Krause on-line catalog listed values, adjusted for my knowledge of the world coin market.
I ship in plain white envelops and use bio-degradable materials when possible to limit environmental footprint.
Returns are accepted if I send you the wrong item. Always bid on the item that is pictured, description sometimes gets copied from the other coins when I list. Grading or description of the coin condition is subjective and cannot be the reason for return.
