If the collection is of significant enough value, consigning it to heritage would be a good idea. If not, I would go to ebay or a similar related site. I'm assuming they are Australian threepence, which although don't carry as much value compared to their British counterparts, can still be desirable and sometimes pricey. This is posted in the wrong forum. |

Photograph them in small groupings with enough clarity so a buyer can determine condition. Determine how much you want for them. List them on ebay as a complete set. |

They are raw in a book. 1910 all the way through to 1963 I'm unsure if there are any rare/valuable 3pence?

Here is a link which may be helpful for the earlier dates. Remember, these are just catalog values, not what you might expect to get from them: https://www.NGCcoin.com/price-guide...duid-1216695I am not an expert on Australian coins, but I think the later dates would only really be worth their silver value, unless they are in Gem MS condition. |

As a general rule, collectors like to "assemble their own sets"; anyone interested in threepences will likely already have at least a partially-assembled set of their own they are trying to complete. As a result, there isn't a lot of demand from collectors to buy such pre-completed sets. A dealer would be interested in buying such a set, but they would want to do so because they hope to break it up and sell each of the coins individually.
The prices for individual coins depends on condition and on the rarity of that specific coin. Sometimes, the cardboard which they used to use to make these albums out of contained sulfur, which turned the back of the coins in these folders black; if that's happened to your coins, the value of these coins is reduced.
I should point out that although the 1922/21 overdate threepence is the most valuable coin in the series, the coin that is in the "1922/21" slot in this album isn't actually a 1922/21, it's a regular 1921 coin.
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

Just to advise, get better pictures for ebay, should you go that route, than the ones you've posted here. Focus carefully, and remove the coins from the album and photograph both sides, in small groups. Plan on a lot of photos in your listing, photos sell your coins. |
