Can anyone tell me approx value and best way to sell it? I'm not a collector so unsure where to start... Description of identical coin found online: Dalmatia, Republic of Ragusa (nowdays Dubrovnik). 1358-1808. AR Tallero (28.50 g, 12h). magistrate DM DM.

I can't seem to upload an image on this post but happy to email if anyone wants to view the coin. It looks identical to this (except not a bright/clean): http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...1-711875.jpg Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16809 Posts	Posted 04/02/2012 11:53 pm Hello and welcome to the forum. Hope we can help. The current Krause values are listed on this website. CoinArchives ought to also have several examples of the type, if not the exact same year, in the database at any one time. As you can see from the NGC page, the date on the coin doesn't make too much difference to the value. The value of a coin depends on condition, so figuring out where your coin fits on this price scale will require seeing pics of your actual coin. As for selling venue, that's entirely up to you. ebay may not be the best; high-value foreign coins tend not to do so well if a seller doesn't have a good reputation for selling coins. If you're in a big city and you don't want to take the gamble on ebay, you could try asking it around the coin dealers - just don't expect them to give you too much above 50% of the catalogue value. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
mvojnovic Pillar of the Community Serbia (Srbija) 576 Posts	Posted 04/03/2012 02:47 am to CCF I like Ragusa coins and I have several of them in my collection (although smaller denomination ). My advice for selling coin is to go from coin dealer to coin dealer and see who will offer you best price. And maybe you will find collector who will give you full price. PS I'm actually not surprised to see Ragusa coin found in Macedonian hills. Ragusa was a famous trading city state and it had trading posts all over Balkan for more then 6 centuries.
