These were from a large collection I bought. When I buy collection most of the time I buy the foreign coins by the pound.
That is the same way most coin shop I have been to buy foriegn coins. Of course most will try to pick out the silver coins, but I have found many foriegn silver coins in dealers foriegn coin bins. Many dealers will sell from their foriegn coin bins .. by the pound .. or so much for each coin.

I should have never read this post! I feel a strong ebay urge coming on LOL! Those are AWESOME! Honestly, I've always enjoyed the look of some foreign pieces, just always say to myself... I will research these later... And never do! Maybe now is the time!

Quote: How much a pound ? I paid $2.00 a pound, $4.00 total. Most of these coins were put together by a collector. There are at least 20 more coins that I kept. Then sold the rest to a local coin shop for $2.00 total. The local shops here buy foreign coins for a $1.50 a pound and sell for $4.00.

I've spent the entire day skimming lots of "world coins" lol. I feel like the nieve unsearched Wheat cent roll buyer again! I've notice some sellers "guarantee three silver pieces per pound" hahaha. I honesty don't care if the lot is worth nothing... I just want to find some real old cool lookin coins! I don't know who to trust. All the sellers have the token "skeezebay feedback" hovering around 96.7% positive.
