CanadianCollecter New Member Canada 47 Posts	Posted 08/12/2016 12:57 pm This ebay seller was selling world coin lots for $8.33 plus shipping. He had multiple lots, and I chose this one. It has a half-dime in the picture, with an O mint mark. Was it worth it? All the earlier half-dimes are around $20 catalog value in G I don't think the half-dime is dateless, I can faintly see what looks like 1857. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

I tried zooming in on the Half Dime, but could not tell how much detail is left on the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Joe2007 Pillar of the Community United States 3843 Posts	Posted 08/12/2016 7:37 pm That Half Dime looks very worn. The value is probably closer to $10 than $20. Could you post better pictures when you receive it in hand? Report this Post to the Staff

Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 08/12/2016 8:55 pm this thread should be in the World Coin section, in fact I had moved it there originally. Since you're asking about a US Classic coin, guess it can stay. Report this Post to the Staff
CanadianCollecter New Member Canada 47 Posts	Posted 08/13/2016 2:26 pm The price for the item was $4.33, and shipping was $4 therefore I spent $8.33 Definitely will post pics when I get it. Report this Post to the Staff
CanadianCollecter New Member Canada 47 Posts	Posted 08/13/2016 2:27 pm Yeah, I saw that Edward VIII coin too. Not that rare, but I think it'll get decent demand. Report this Post to the Staff
