I sold another bunch of foreign coins and brought the following coins. The coin in the capsule is a 1996 Belgian 10 euro, I also like the Austrian schilling coins and Papua New Guinea shillings, the total cost was £40 (approx $51).

I went to my local market today and got the following for £10:

2x 1934 20 belgium francs
1957 2 Swiss francs
1950 10 Canadian cents
1913 50 French centimes

1927 2 mils palstine
1936 1/2 Syria piastre
1936 1 Syria piastre
1907 1/40 egypt qirish
1877 5 Spanish centimes

I wasn't sure if this was a good deal but I'm looking to expand my silver coins collection. I got 5 silver coins so I brought it in the end.

These all look like great deals to me - I love world silver coinage. Please keep posting pics!

But I wonder about the "1996 Belgian 10 euro". Is it 10 franc...? The euro came out a few years later?

Sold some more modern foreign coins and with the proceeds brought a 1937 crown and 1943 florin for £13.

I'm hoping to buy a few more silver coins if I can.

Sold another bunch of modern foreign coins and brought the following:

1489 Henry VII Commemorative Sovereign. Gold on silver proof

2008 British virgin Islands $10 Henry VII commemorative.

2009 Gibraltar One Crown Henry VIII commemorative.

1964 Norwegian 10kr silver coin

1924 Russian 50 Kopecs

1973 1st day cover with silver medal by John Pinches

The whole lot cost £30 with postage, but I got a fair amount of silver, although I know the 2009 Gibraltar Crown is silver plated.
