HoosierDaddy Pillar of the Community United States 1164 Posts	Posted 01/01/2013 11:37 pm I can find a match for the reverse but not the obverse? I am using wildwinds. Is there another to help me? Report this Post to the Staff

HoosierDaddy Pillar of the Community United States 1164 Posts	Posted 01/02/2013 4:42 pm Since all 5 are of the same emperor but different coins. What is a good estimate of their value? Report this Post to the Staff
Gil-galad Pillar of the Community United States 2044 Posts	Posted 01/02/2013 4:57 pm This is just my opinion. Most of them are around fine to fine plus grade. About $20-$35 each, approximate. Report this Post to the Staff

augustus1 Pillar of the Community United States 549 Posts	Posted 01/02/2013 9:14 pm I'd say more like $12 each. If a lot of those five were offered on ebay, it might go about $40-50, and if individually, $10-$15 each, would be my guess. Report this Post to the Staff
Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 01/02/2013 10:05 pm . The coins might sell for $15 individually, $20 in you're lucky. Report this Post to the Staff
HoosierDaddy Pillar of the Community United States 1164 Posts	Posted 01/03/2013 06:45 am After a little research with my friend, these should be billon coins. Since coins they were local provincial coins does this make them on the rare side or the opposite? I have some regular silver examples, too. The dark patina, since it's so even, had me puzzled. I have a couple of 1700's billon coins from France(colonials) and they are more on the lighter copperish color. Thanks guys for the info. I learn new stuff here everyday.
