My Sunday Market Finds

I would much rather see Nazi coins in the hands of collectors than in a melting pot. 100 years from now when the survivors and their children are gone, we're going to such items as reminders.

Did you go yesterday?

I hope so, too.

Two Sundays without an update makes me a bit nervous.

Good to hear from you!

Good timing! You picked up a lot of beauties! Thanks for sharing with us.

Very nice, always check here to see what you have found. How do you store your coins after you get them, have any problems organizing them before the next pickup?

Another Sunday down, another batch to come home.

25 Öre, Sweden 1896

Lovely batch for 20 kr! Favourites include the Malaysian 10 Sen and the Finnish Penni, later on cleaned properly to remove the yucky green stuffs




Considering the regular loads coming in, I'm used to deal with semi-quality coins in larger amounts so I have a somewhat good storage solution with plenty of trays for different countries in different eras with just a little extra space. Large scale additions are not good for that and usually require a reorganizations which becomes constantly trickier with more coins. But typically a few coins a week won't break capacity and they quickly yet efficiently get placed in their proper positions
