if you're curious about the others ...

P.S. do not clean them to make them or the pictures look better.

I am going to put the Canadian coins on ebay how should I describe them? Do I sell them as a lot? Thanks for your help.

"I" would list them individually.

As far as describing them, as posted above, let's see the pics and the CCF members can give you some descriptions of them and go from there.

Thanks DBM I have looked into the wide zero version and seems to worth a few $$$$ or ££££ in my case. I've put them both on ebay on a no reserve auction for 10 days. ebay item number 271175252502 Thanks again x

No reserve on the listing. So no sellers insurance. The pics are scans of the actual coins for sale. I have nothing invested in these so anything is good for me. Thanks for your comments . X

Ok so I took advice. I was not sure what private bidding was so I started another auction and separated the coin into individual listings one is 271176481527 on ebay and other is 271176229205 . They are not private listings and both dont habe any reserve price....I've nothing invested in them and have no interest in collecting them so someone should get a bargain. Goid luck. X
