I've got a few that I'm willing to swap. I will have to look them up to see exactly what I have. Let me know if you are interested and I'll get a list to you. What is it that you have to offer in trade?

I do as I get regular shipments from all over Europe (well most of Europe) and I trade or sell off all the extras I receive as I NEVER turn down a coin offered by the collectors in Europe after they spend their hard earned money to pick me up coins and ship them over. I take what ever is sent and return the favor, one way or another. What do you have or need?

My list of "Haves and Swaps" can be found here. I only collect uncirculated euro coins.

My computer cannot open your list Bigfella, I don't have excel. This computer is so old, I'm still waiting for the vaccuum tubes to warm up.

Now are you collecting just the one cent piece or the $1 euro or all denominations? I printed your list and want to be sure I understand just what you are needing!

Bigfella you would be sick if you knew how many extras I sold off just about a month ago from San Marino and Monaco! Needless to say they were all sold through this forum and the euro collecting members grabbed them very quickly!

Aren't they the harder ones to get?
When I was in Germany at the begining of the year they were selling a mint set of them for a couple of hundred euros. Just depending on the mintmark.
Are they that expensive in OZ or the US?

Hey Bigfella, I just downloaded the program so that I can view your list. I'm getting ready to go out with the family right now, but give me a while and I will surely have something to swap with you.  |

On a slight side note, can I ask has anyone recently bought or sold complete euro unc sets?
If so what kind of prices were they and for what country.
Very Interested.

Lars..I recently purchased a Italian 2002 set for around the AU$80. New issues generally are around AU$40 or so plus postage. Sets from the vatican are very expensive.

Thanks Bigfella, can I ask how were they presented?
I have a few is cd cases and this is how they were issued.

I get a lot of individual unc. coins from the collectors in Europe. Sets are sent now and then but for the most part I have requested silver commemoratives and unc.$2 circulating commemoratives. All I would have to do is request the denominations you need (singles) and the country to see what my friends have available. I do think AU$40 is a bit steep for unc. sets unless they are from Vatican City, Monaco or San Marino?

One thing is for certain, if I get my paws on anything I don't need for my collection I will be posting the "extras" here on the forum. Really is good to see all these euro collectors in one place!
