Quote: I've never seen a Cyprus 5 cent coin before that looks like this! It's a new design, made because the Brexit made making new Euro coinage obsolete.

I hope this commemorative coin wasn't found at the scene of a crime, because those are pretty solid fingerprints. 351821971300

Wow. I wonder if that spent some time as a pocket piece.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Coins-Lot-/...9?nav=SEARCHDespite the blurry pics, that actually looks like a nice collection worth at least the starting bid. The kicker is in the description: "I reserve the right to sell some or all coins before the listing ends." No, I don't think that is how this works, buddy.

It might be worth the reserve amount too, you know if they actually showed the lot they expect us to buy.
And that's also assuming that you get the whole thing when it ships!

Quote: I've never seen a Cyprus 5 cent coin before that looks like this! Oh well. one island state or another, it's difficult to keep them apart. Especially when both end on 's'. Fortunately, 'five' is part of 'twenty five', like 'laughter' is part of 'manslaughter'. Quote: "I reserve the right to sell some or all coins before the listing ends." I reserve the right to come to work whenever I wish and to do whatever I wish, but still I expect a full salary, as I showed you what I potentially *could* do.
