Please don't bid if you won't buy.  (Some listings have #1, #2, etc. in the title as I sometimes list duplicate grades of the same date and mint mark. These numbers are only to make certain that the coin you select is the one I will send to you.) The photos are of the actual coin I will ship.
I gladly accept PAYPAL so you can use your VISA & MASTERCARD, bank account, etc., through Paypal. Check out my other auctions for more coins!
California residents must pay sales tax.
Please note:
If paying with PayPal, please combine all auctions won, making one payment.
If you are an international buyer, please wait for my invoice since I may need to add registration and insurance costs, but I will also combine shipping to save you money!
Grading Details:
Abbreviations used above refer to the American Numismatic Association (ANA) Grading System as follows: (These descriptions are very brief; for detailed description, see the ANA Grading Book.)
BU = Brilliant Uncirculated – "New," has never been in circulation but may have bag marks. The numbers from 60 to 70 refer to how nice the coin appears. The higher the number, the closer to "perfect" the coin is. AU = Almost Uncirculated – Small amount of wear on the highest points. Usually a highly lustrous coin. (AU+ = so close to "new" that you will need a high-powered magnifier to see any wear.) XF = Extremely Fine – Very light wear on the high points VF = Very Fine – More wear than XF. Some flat spots on high points. F = Fine – Moderate to heavy wear. VG = Very Good – Most details in hair are worn smooth. Rims are complete. G = Good – Well Worn with very little detail remaining. AG - About Good - Clear enough to identify, wear extends into lettering
Split Grade:
I use "split" grades to describe an "in between" coin. For example "VF-XF" means that the coin is better than Very Fine and may have some of the characteristics of Extremely Fine, but it isn't quite good enough to grade it XF.
Use Ebay's Check Out system if you wish, but I'll also be sending out an invoice.
Ten percent of the net proceeds will be donated to Chosen Children of Promise to assist orphaned and destitute children in Nairobi Kenya. My wife & I helped found this organization when we lived in Nairobi, 2003-2005. Contact me for more information. Thank you.
Listing Errors:
Because I usually list several hundred coins per month, I occasionally make a mistake in the listing, usually by loading up the wrong photo for the listed coin. If you notice a photo that obviously doesn't match the listing description, please bring this to my attention before bidding so I can correct the photo promptly. In the event a listing ends with a discrepancy between the photo and the listing description, the description will be what I'll go by to make the delivery. Questions? Please ask me for clarification as needed.
