One of these I posted already I think and was told it's A to denticle, the others I'm not sure what variety they are. It's so hard to tell with my pics. #1  #2  #3  #4  |

No idea, but watch out for getting your finger prints on your coins!

@TheDeductible, I'm holding each coin by the rim, just from angled shots it might look like I'm touching the face.

Nice, I'll wait for some more opinions and see if everyone comes to the same conclusion. Then I'll ask for a rough grading and keep the best one and see if I can sell the other. I'll have to figure out how to work ebay first, would be my first time ever trying to sell anything. But I need some extra cash to get some equipment and this could be a small start |

Sammeli is correct, 1 and 3 are A points to denticle, the rest are A between denticles.

Thanks guys, I look through sold ebay listings to get a rough idea what these are worth. I know grade plays a huge part in pricing and I doubt these are worth getting professional grading. |

Not worth grading, it would cost more than they are worth combined. What I would do is set them as an auction, free shipping with a start bid around the price of postage and see if collectors bite. That is just my opinion, they are yours so you can sell them however you like, but there has been a few examples on ebay for a while now around $15 nobody seems to be buying so you might have a better chance selling them if you start the bidding off below $5.00 - $10.00.

I'm only going to sell one if them, and anything I can add to my coin budget is helpful. My fiance is back working again now so that should help us a bit. She's doing gardening in Hamilton and Burlington for 20$ an hour. Has clients set up for Monday-friday now. But gardening ends in a couple months.

I'm almost tempted to bring my 50$ for 50$ silver coin back to the bank and use that for a microscope.

Or, you could auction the $50 for $50 on ebay and make more than what the bank would give you. They go for around $70ish+ depending on what it is.

50 for 50 snowy owl coin. But the case has been cracked so I'm not sure it would sell for anything extra, okiecoiner is giving me a really good deal on a scope and camera(many thanks) can't wait to actually be able to actually look at coins up close and not have to break my eye balls to do so. Hopefully the quality of my posts start to really improve:)

Since you live in Hamilton and close to T.O.. you should put them on KIJIJI where you don't have to give up 1/3 of the selling price as you do for ebay. Just don't have the people come to your home: choose a Tim's or something. I have a friend in the area that does very very well on kijiji and they don't take a cut. |

At okiecoiner my fiance has a Kijiji account so that's a great idea, there's also Facebook marketplace and Etsy, not sure if they take a cut or not. |
